Highly sought after custom bulls eye pistol built by the late renowned gunsmith Thomas Shimoda. Based on a Colt Government Model Series 70 1911, the entire pistol has been customized by Shimoda. Bo-Mar adjustable rear sight and extended front sight. This pistol has the tightest fit and best trigger action that I've ever seen.

Shimoda was the Honolulu Police Department's armorer/gunsmith in the 1970's to 1980's. He was also famous for his "Smolt" conversions mating a Smith and Wesson Model 15 to a Python Barrel making for a highly accurate revolver. Shimoda built firearms are known for their accuracy, tight tolerances and smooth actions. Search YouTube for "Tom Shimoda" to see who he was.

Shimoda passed away in the late 1980's so there will be no more of these fine pistols.

$2,700 Will meet at Ventura Firearms for transfer. Buyer responsible for all transfer fees.
