| If you are a proud American who stands a
little taller with every wave of the Stars and Stripes, if you can see
an eagle soaring in the sky and feel its sense of freedom, if you stand
with pride when the Star-Spangled Banner is sung and you still feel a
sense of awe whenever you see the Statue of Liberty, then you know what
it means to be a patriotic citizen of the greatest nation in the world.
Our country is truly America the beautiful, land of the free, home of
the brave; a land of unlimited opportunity for every citizen.
As Americans, we treasure the symbols of
our nation because they represent our hard fought steps along the road
to liberty and democracy. They remind us of the men and women who
sacrificed their lives so we can live in freedom, and all those who have
served and continue to serve our country, upholding the values we hold
dear as a nation.
Now, America Remembers is proud to issue
a Tribute, honoring the spirit of American freedom and every brave
American who has fought to preserve it: The Colt® Proud To Be An
American Tribute Pistol. This historic issue captures the spirit of
America on a truly classic American firearm: the Colt® Government Model®
.45 Pistol. The Tribute is a working, officially licensed Colt .45 that
is also the first stainless steel pistol ever issued by America
Remembers! Craftsmen commissioned specifically by America Remembers have
decorated the Tribute in handsome 24-karat gold artwork with a unique
combination of engraving, a matte finish steel background and a
magnificent multi-finish 24-karat gold and copper design to create an
overall stunning effect.
A Classic American Firearm
Each Tribute is a fully functional Colt® Government Model® .45 Pistol,
an American icon that many of its owners consider one of the best
pistols ever made. Firearms produced by Colt have played a prominent
role in American history, and the classic firearms produced by Colt have
been a favorite of firearms enthusiasts and collectors for generations.
More fighting men have carried the Model .45 than any other pistol in
history. It defended our freedom – and the world’s – throughout World
War I and World War II, Korea and Vietnam. We at America Remembers
considered the Colt .45 pistol a natural choice for our tribute to
American patriotism.

and liberty, along with those who continue to stand ready to defend our
great nation and the values we hold dear. As you hold this Tribute in
your own hands, you will experience that special feeling, which says,
“I’m proud to be an American – the greatest nation in the world!”

The stainless steel slide has a tactical
bead blasted frame to give it a handsome matte finish, which perfectly
complements the artwork featured in stunning 24-karat gold. At barrel’s
end on both sides the rays of the sun are featured, representing the
strength of the American way of life and the pride that every American
feels who truly loves their country.
Three treasured symbols dear to the heart
of every American citizen are featured on each side of the slide. The
Statute of Liberty is magnificently featured as a welcoming symbol to
every immigrant, visitor and citizen of our country who returns home.
The “lady with the lamp” has stood as a symbol of our national freedom
for over a century. The majestic American bald eagle is featured,
symbolizing our nation’s boundless, soaring spirit and its staunch
determination to defend liberty against all oppressors. The Stars and
Stripes is also featured as both a foundation that all other American
symbols rest upon and a spanning representation of our country’s
enduring spirit of freedom and unity.

Tribute .45 Pistol, you will receive a handsome, luxuriously lined
