Historic firearms manufacturer Colt has announced some innovative new products for the start of 2016, including the Colt Competition Pistol.

The Colt Competition Pistol, which is available in .45 ACP or 9mm, offers several features that competitive shooters will appreciate, including Colt’s innovative Dual Spring Recoil System developed for the M45A1 in order to reduce recoil and help keep shots on target at critical moments.

“This pistol is competition grade,” said Mark Redl, Team Colt sponsored shooter and Product Manager for Colt. “We designed a pistol that you can buy on the way to a match.” Other features include Novak’s new adjustable rear sight and fiber optic front sight, competition ergonomics including an undercut trigger guard and upswept beavertail safety, and a National Match barrel. The Colt Competition Pistol carries an MSRP of $899.
