Colt Combat Unit CCO 9mm 4.25" Night Sight Black Stainless Steel 1911 Pistol ZO9842CCU (UPC 151550026928)
The Colt Combat Unit CCO 9mm 4.25" Night Sight Black Stainless Steel 1911 Pistol ZO9842CCU (UPC 151550026928) is a purpose-built, duty-ready 1911 that combines Colt’s legendary reliability with modern features optimized for concealed carry and defensive use. Part of Colt’s Combat Unit series, this CCO (Compact Carry Officer) model features a 4.25-inch barrel, making it more compact and easier to conceal than a full-size Government model while still offering excellent shootability. Chambered in 9mm Luger, this pistol provides higher magazine capacity and lower recoil compared to traditional .45 ACP 1911s. The pistol comes equipped with night sights for low-light performance, a durable black finish over a stainless steel frame and slide, and the refined ergonomics that have made the 1911 platform a favorite among professionals and serious shooters for over a century.
Colt developed the Combat Unit series to meet the needs of law enforcement, military personnel, and civilian shooters who require a dependable, no-nonsense 1911. The CCO configuration strikes an ideal balance between concealability and performance, making it one of the most practical 1911 variants for everyday carry.
Compact Carry Officer (CCO) Frame
The Combat Unit CCO features a compact frame that is shorter than a standard Government model but longer than an Officer’s model. This size offers a full-size grip for better control and magazine capacity while reducing overall length for improved concealability. The 4.25-inch barrel further enhances its carry-friendly profile without sacrificing too much velocity or sight radius. This makes the CCO an excellent choice for those who want a 1911 that can be comfortably carried concealed on a daily basis.

Night Sights for Low-Light Performance
This model is equipped with night sights, providing a clear sight picture in low-light and no-light conditions. Whether used for home defense, law enforcement duties, or personal protection, the ability to acquire targets quickly in dim environments is a critical advantage. The night sights are tritium-powered, ensuring they remain visible without the need for batteries or external light sources.
Black Finish on Stainless Steel
The pistol features a durable black finish applied over a stainless steel frame and slide. This combination provides the corrosion resistance and strength of stainless steel while offering a non-reflective, tactical appearance. The black finish helps reduce glare and provides better concealment when carried, making it well-suited for both duty use and civilian concealed carry.
9mm Luger Chambering
Chambered in 9mm Luger, this Combat Unit CCO offers several practical advantages. The 9mm cartridge provides higher magazine capacity, lower recoil, and more affordable ammunition compared to .45 ACP. This makes the pistol easier to shoot accurately during high-stress situations and allows for more cost-effective training. The 9mm platform also offers excellent terminal performance with modern defensive ammunition, making it a highly capable choice for self-defense.
1911 Ergonomics and Reliability
The Colt Combat Unit CCO retains the classic 1911 features that have made the platform legendary, including excellent ergonomics, a crisp single-action trigger, and a manual thumb safety.
