I'm thinking about picking one of these up as my next gun purchase, but I don't know anybody who owns one. It wouldn't be my main carry gun (I have a Sig P938), but I'd probably enjoy shooting it at the range, and I think I'd appreciate it for Colt's build quality more than I'd enjoy buying a Sig P238.

Does anybody know what sorts of improvements Colt did to the Mustang when they reintroduced the model a few years ago? Are the new ones more reliable? I've heard mixed reviews about the old ones, although I prefer the old style rollmarks and would probably prefer an all blued one, which isn't made anymore. Just looking for thoughts from anyone with experience.

I'm also thinking about picking up one of the Ionbond models for the front sight, but I've heard mixed reviews on the durability of Ionbond finish, and the rollmark on this one is somehow even uglier than the stainless model.

Here's an example of the original Mustang. IMO, any rollmark with a pony stamp is instantly much more attractive to any rollmark without one. You can also get them in all stainless, with a steel, not alloy frame.

Any reason you couldn't get an original if it's that important to you?

The older guns were reported as having jamming issues and supposedly, the new Mustangs are "improved." I just don't know what Colt did to improve them.

>>34361912
Can't say I knew anything about that
If they did anything it's probably throat the barrel from the factory.

It was a timing problem. Shit was fixed almost 20 years ago though.

>>34362238
There would still be an issue trying to figure out what year a given used gun was produced in.

I bought the exact model in your picture brand new about a year ago and had tons of problems with it. FTFeeds and FTEjects out the ass. Sent it back to Colt. Took them about 4 months to get it back to me, still not working and a huge idiot scratch on the fucking slide. Davidsons was nice enough to replace the gun with an HK P30SK that I carry and has actually been reliable.

Gun looked nice though.

Same poster as:>>34362270

Forgot to say that if you want a nice small Colt pistol, look for a Colt 1903 or 1908. Much nicer guns.

>>34362270
Well that's kind of crappy.

>>34362296
I used to own one, but sold it because I'm an idiot. It was a good little gun and I never had a failure with it, but I'm really looking to get something in new or like new condition and which I might be able to carry safely without worrying about a 100 year old striker slipping a 100 year old sear. Not crazy about .25 caliber either.
