I think you would classify it as a LE.. The case back just has xx of 50 on it. Otherwise it's just a normal Colt.
The local AD had Breitling make 50 watches for them. They had to work out all the licensing BS with the University of Texas to do it. There is only one AD in Austin so they have all of them. I have 3/50, not sure how many are left. I know that some portion of the sale was going to charity as well. They may get more or less popular after this evening. :-)

LE indeed.

I don't feel so bad never having heard of it if it's an AD order.

How are you distinguishing LE from SE? Just curious.

Discussed at length in the LE thread, but essentially it is produced as xx / xx rather than just # xx.

The vast majority have xx / xx on the caseback although there are one or two excpetions.

I was pulling for your Freshman QB. He really stepped up but it was definitely Bama's year.

Well now that he's no longer an amateur, I hope that AD saved one of those UT Colt's for Mr. McCoy.
