Colt Delta Elite or a smaller frame 1911?
I thought the Delta Elite wasn't manufactured until 1987. Could this be another anachronism?
- I'm a little more curious to know what makes us think this is a Delta Elite to begin with. It looked to me like it might have just been a regular Commander-type 1911. But if it is a Delta Elite, then yes, it is yet another of the movie's many firearms-related anachronisms.
- I thought it was a 1911 myself.
- I agree, does not look like a Delta Elite to me. Don't know why it is considered to be one.
- It also seems like a 1911 would be way more common for a sheriff to carry than a Delta Elite.
- I don't mean to be rude to the person that made this page, but unless we can find a good reason to state this is a Delta Elite, I think we should change the section to a 1911.
- It's definitely not a regular 1911 or 1911A1. It has a circular hammer, so it's gotta be a Commander variant such as the Series 80. The only question is whether it's the Delta Elite (which is similar externally to the Commander line, but chambered for 10mm).
- Agreed. Mabey it would be better if we moved this to the discussion page so we do not clutter up the page?
