U.S. Model 1911A1 Semi-Auto Pistol by Remington Rand
serial #1520048, 45 ACP, 5'' High Standard barrel with an excellent bore. This 1943 gun remains in about very good condition. The metal surfaces retain about 90% original Parkerized finish that appears strong in ambient light but is starting to take on a brown hue under direct light. The metal surfaces showing high edge wear, the frontstrap and portions of the frame have toned to brown, handling marks, and scattered freckling. The fully checkered Keyes Fibre grips feature reinforcing bars on the rear of the panels, reinforcing rings around the screw holes, and remain in excellent condition. All of the controls and small parts appear correct for the period of manufacture, Colonel Atwood's inspection stamp and the proof marks are crisp as are the other markings. It includes an unmarked seven-round magazine. Also included is a single U.S. Model 1916 flap holster by Sears, the date is stamped off center and not legible and it bears inspector initials ''G.W.M.''. It remains in very good condition showing light wear, strong stitching, and light handling marks. A fine example of a mid-war gun. (8A11810-7) {C&R} (1800/2200)
