    New to me 1975 SP1 Factory Test fired only?

    - Warning this will be Picture heavy. -

    Picked this up from my FFL today. I was hoping for something good and thus far my expectations are exceeded. But this is the first somewhat vintage Colt I've owned, so it may be sheer ignorance.

    The exterior cosmetics are outstanding, things seem correct to me as far as I've been able to determine.

    The bore is spotless and based on the gas port erosion, or lack therof, I'd say it "MAY" have only been test fired at Colt. **Looking for opinions**

    I'll start with the exterior cosmetics.







    Barrel Exterior:



    BCG with Red extractor insert:



    Gas Port:



    I think it looks fantastic in my Colt section, regardless of how many rounds it has seen.

    Three questions:

    1. For those of you who have seen the interior of barrels, how many rounds would you estimate based on this gas port erosion?

    2. See any issues?

    3.Would you shoot it?
