CMP M1911A1 arrived today

a lot of the ammunition.

I was in Ft Lewis with my rifle company doing FIBUA in the tire house in '89... While the troops were moving through dry I was above them on the walls walking and observing. I was picking up .45 brass by the dozen as it was hard to get here and it was all Israeli headstamp. At the time I thought it strange. They were marked TZZ 85 and so on, mostly '85. Of course I still have some here.

It is a Field Grade. The barrel is a wartime production High Standard. Marked "HS" on the right side of the lug and a "P" on the left.

Thats very good IMO. My Round 2 Service Grade is Ithaca frame, Rem Rand Slide. Barrel is 7791193 no date stamp contract barrel.
