    Wow! I wonder what Demo serial number 1 is worth. Very cool piece of history. Historical pieces are always so much cooler with the proper context.

    History....love it. Thank you for the read. Lol, only place you could get a typewriter and a 1911. Classic.

    Wish my 1911 was $23.92. Inflation of over 1219% sucks.

    Nice little read there, thanks. I would guess that the majority of the 1911s that will one day be offered by the CMP will be Remington Rand and then Colt.
