Below are things we feel should be considered when choosing a firearm. If the firearm will be carried, smaller size would be an ideal characteristic. Colt offers a wide range of sizes for you to select from. The larger the caliber, the farther and more forcefully it will shoot. Choosing a firearm that is reliable will ensure that it's there when you need it.
Reliability is directly related to quality.
Colt continually produces high quality firearms you can count on. Simple, effective operation of the firearm will improve accuracy and safety. Proper training in the operation and use of firearms is paramount to their safe operation. There are training groups, gun clubs and shooting ranges that offer firearm training. Consult your local gun dealer about where you can obtain the proper training for use of your firearm.
