    Remington rand type 1 and type 2

    I wonder how many Type 1 slide and Type 2 slide REMINGTON RANDs were manufactured.

    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.

    I found the answer, sorry.
    According to Mr Clawson said
    Type 1 ran from 916405 to ROUGHLY 935000 = 18595 guns approximately
    Type 2 ran from ROUGHLY 93500 to 1016000 INTERMITTENTLY = 8100 guns, tops.
    Which leaves over 851000 Type 3s.

    For common knowledge Type 2 started long before s/n 935,000

    I have a type II that is original and has a milled trigger. Serial number is 925,000 ish. Estimates given over the years have varied on the type Is is 10000 ot 15000. Type IIs would run closer to 75000 ot 80000 made. Hopefully Scott or JP will opine.
