TALO has had the privilege of collaborating with renowned and skilled engravers, whose remarkable craftsmanship is exemplified in the Government Colt 38 Super Series 1911. The slide showcases a striking combination of bright polished stainless steel, mythical engravings, and twenty-four-karat gold plating, with the iconic Colt logo gracing the slide's rear panels. The frame, controls, and hammer are all meticulously polished to achieve a highly reflective shine. The Colt Aztec Empire further captivates with twenty-four-carat gold plating on the hex-style grip screws, complementing the white pearlite grips adorned with Aztec-themed etchings on the top and bottom, accentuated by gold inlay.

While the Colt Aztec Empire is a masterpiece appreciated for its aesthetic allure, it remains a reliable semi-automatic pistol, built for more than display. As a Government model Series 70 with a five-inch barrel, it delivers authoritative performance when firing .38 Special rounds. This versatility has made it a popular choice for various applications such as hunting, camping, and pest control, as Colt introduced the Super .38 caliber over ninety years ago. The limited edition model features standard 1911 fixed sights, enabling precise target acquisition and accurate shot placement. Remarkably, one of the highlights of owning the Colt Aztec Empire is the joy of taking it to the range for the first time. Unleashing its potential, you'll experience the exceptional combination of beauty and dependability, making it one of the most desirable and trustworthy pistols on the range.
