Something Old and New at the same time. For us old Soldiers and anyone else that wants to step back into time about 40 years. This is new for 2017 by Colt and is only distinguishable by the last digit of the serial number from what I was issued in 1982 in Basic Training. This is a must have for any Infantryman from 1968-1989.
