On Feb. 11th, 1918, Colt shipped 1,600 1911s to the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Almost all went to ships, and this falls into the USS CALIFORNIA group! It will take some more research, but what a find!!! The gentleman who brough it in said that it had been in his family for many years, and none had an interest in it!!! This is one of the last Brushed Blue Colts and is JMG inspected!!
Dang, life is GOOD!!!
I SURE DID!!!
