Umarex Colt 1911 Anniversary Md
« on: March 21, 2005, 09:53:59 AM »
Have this colt and I think it is fairly rare cause Crosman doesn't have any and I don't see any listed anywhere.  It is the 160th Anniversary model with special engraving and ivory colored grips.  Its in the Daisy catalogue as product #6400 but Smith sold them to Daisy and Daisy sold them to Crosman and anyway I have one that will not shoot single action.  All the others I have had would shoot double and single but this one has been to NY twice to H&R shooters who cannot fix it.  They claim it worked when it left their shop but between there and Missouri it doesn't shoot single action but one or two shots and poops out and leaves the pellet halfway in the rotary magazine.  Crossman doesn't have any more to replace mine with and I think I have seen these for sale on various airgun forums.  
  Anyone have an Idea what it would be worth????  I might want  to well it for a higher price than I gave and they could send it to crossman for a new one.   They could actually swap the slide and the grips to one of their 1911's and have an Anniversary model if they would do it.  Thanks.

Mine isn't an anniversary model but I too have the problem.  The cylinder doesn't quite rotate far enough in single action and the pellet jams against the breack.  I too sent mine to Daisy way back when and they didn't fix it.  Don't shoot it much now.  Works good in double action and its pretty accurate.  Good for double action practice. No idea on a price.

Sent it today to Crosman and they are to send me a new one.  Told them they could swap the slide and grips to a new one and I would still have the Anniversary model.  Hope it works.  I thought I saw a Colt Anniversary for sale somewhere in the $300 range.   It could be rare, not sure.
