The 80 series fps can easily be removed, a small metal shim is available to replace the removed parts, and function is just like a 70 series. The fps is transparent for the most part.
The newer 70s are nice, Colt went to better CNC gear some time ago.
Springfield makes some nice stuff too. Good bargains can be found in Colt's older 1991s. Same pistol, just not as nicely finished.
And of course you need a few Hi-Powers.
