COLT 1911A1 lend lease to RUSSIA s/n ?
FWIK Russia received a number of 1911A1 from the States during WWII.
I would be interested to know where I could find the serial numbers of those guns.

I always tell my collector mates to put originality at the top of their priority list, originality isn't something that can be restored. I've never seen a 1911 I didn't like.

Apparently in the time lapse 1943-1945 in Russia received ~13 000 COLT 1911a1 by lend lease contract, I've read that they were in the s/n 980,000 - 1,100,000 range but I haven't find any reliable document to proove it.
