I read that with the very early Ithaca 1911A1 production they received slides from Colt. I found here a 1911A1 that should be a Colt but the frame wears the FJA (which is Ithaca) numbered in the 856xxx being duplicated with Colt numbers, on left side of the slide the marking is Colt standard like any Colt 1911A1 WWII, Coltwood plastic grips with no reinforcing rings, hammer wide spur.
Is it genuine or this is a later assembling, have you seen such gun.
