    Going back to post #67 all of the 1911s being sold directly (non auction) were referbished in 1978, packaged up in to crates and stored ever since. Not rattle ans and no need to rebuild.

    The ones being auctioned came from the Army museum system amd consist of rare/hard to find models.

    ^^ I was starting to think I screwed up my packet somehow and wasn't going to get a number. Be patient, I guess. They'll get there.

    For the 1911 junkies, thought I'd share. No rebuild marks. All internal parts are correct/original as far as I can tell. Shipped to SA March 1918. I don't even remember where I got it.

    We need more 1911 appreciation. Let's do this!

    Feb 1918 Brooklyn Navy Yard (last M1911 Navy contract)




    Here she is with her M1917 JMG inspected sister. Haven't quite figured out how to load these .45ACP revolvers. Mags don't fit!!!


    Ratty old M1911A1 1943 shipped GHD "S" marked. Looks like a repro but it's not. Paid way too much. POS barely shoots. Don't understand how they beat Hitler with this crap.

    Damn, Skip... That's some nice hardware! I suspect a few forum members have some amazingly nice pieces. hope to see more here.

    I do have this one, too, but it's obviously a repro. It's fun to fondle, though.

    Remington UMC/Turnbull repro:

    These nice guns make me appreciate my beat up war gun even more.

    My old Colt from the first picture is pretty rough on the other side from poor storage. Rough and beat up is perfectly OK...I never worry about taking it out and shooting it.
