I had been in the market for an officer ltwt model and came across a New Agent last night at a local shop at a decent price so I gave it a home. Very similar to the Defender I have except that it has a matte blue finish, no sights but rather a trench type sight system without anything sticking up. Very light for a .45 and I plan on it being a carry weapon for me. I'll try to post pictures later today.

I looked this up and it is one sweet looking gun. Nice size. Looks to be about the size of my son's Kimber Ultra-Carry.

They are the size of a kimber ultra carry if not just a little smaller because of the sights and the rear safety being smaller. I had looked at a Kimber but when it comes to 1911's I am a true colt fan so all but one of my five 1911's are colts.

Here's a few shots of my Lightweight Officers. Does anyone have any idea the vintage? I thought is was mid '80's but I can't confirm that.

The Hogue grip is not original. I'll have to dig up the box (it's in the attic) to see what grips came on it originally.

That's nice, Max. Nice size for carry.
