Colt has released the Combat Elite Series family of pistols—and they are introducing all three models at once. 

Visually, with its two-toned look, the new Combat Elite harks back to the original model—but these new pistols have some special finishing touches and a few updates. An ambidextrous thumb safety, updated beavertail, undercut trigger guards, 25 LPI checkering on the main spring housing and the frontstrap, as well as Tritium night sights round out the main features that make this family of pistols stand out. Offered in 9 mm and .45 Colt, the three models include a 5" version, a Commander-length and Defender-length. MSRP: $1,399
