Short treatment on the Remington Rand 1911s

That is a nice little read. I have my Grandpa's Remington Rand and really want to do something with like a shadow box on the wall or something.

Don't. It'll be the first thing stolen in a break-in. You can't have anything nice these days.

Nice read. Now I need to keep an eye out for one more collectible.

That guy (1911collector on Reddit) has MANY astonishingly rare and valuable pistols. Just based on what he's posted publicly on Reddit, his collection is worth well north of $100k.

And no doubt he has a whole lot more that he's keeping to himself....

Great read.
Thanks for posting it.

Very interesting article for me. As I've posted here once before I have demonstration model serial #146. Prior to running across this one most books said either 145 or 150 were made. Since I have #146 (it has been verified as correct by a few well know collectors) most seem to think the number made is 150.
great article, thanks for the posting!

Once upon a time,I owned a Singer .45 acp 1911. If I knew then what it could be worth,,never would have sold it for. $350,,,,in 1986

Please tell me you are joking? Please?

You can quickly drop it in the safe or pull it out for display. I missed my chance on the Colt Collector's Show that came through here a few years back. They had a Colt logo'd version.
