Colt - World-renowned pistols with a long tradition

The US Arms manufacturer Colt has played a leading role in shaping the development of modern firearms and is not only known in this country from countless films and series.

Various pistols from the manufacturer from Hartford in Connecticut, who has developed revolvers and assault rifles in addition to quick-loading pistols over more than 150 years of company history, are waiting in the ASMC shop.

Use Colt pistols correctly and professionally

Many of the models in this shop are so-called realistic weapons, which are intended exclusively for private use and may not be carried in public. A basic distinction must be made between gas pistols and blank pistols as well as real defensive weapons that have an easy-load system. With this, the gas cartridge can be replaced in a short time and without much effort.

Many Colt models are made of full metal, while others set visual highlights and offer for example a detective look with a wooden handle. In all variants, the accidental firing of shots is prevented by a manual safety which does not cause unwanted unlocking even when worn on the body.

For safe and proper storage, a custom-fit holster is an essential piece of equipment that is available in many versions in this shop. Other accessories such as steel balls, spare magazines and carrying straps are also available and some of them are also suitable for the manufacturer's rifles. Depending on the model, the gun is purchased as a complete set with batteries, chargers or spare magazines.
