Overview

The Colt Mfg Gold Cup is a handgun chambered in 9mm, offering a standard capacity of 8 rounds and featuring a 5-inch barrel. As part of Colt's lineup, the Gold Cup line is historically associated with precision-oriented 1911-pattern pistols, and this configuration reflects that heritage with its full-size barrel length suited for a balanced sight radius. The 9mm chambering provides a widely available cartridge option, while the 8-round capacity reflects a traditional single-stack magazine configuration common to this style of handgun. These specifications make the Gold Cup a representative example of a classic 1911-style handgun platform adapted for the 9mm cartridge.
