NEW 1943 Colt 1911A1

[DaveN]

My thoughts also. I'm not concerned with the value of this one as I was looking for one in shooter condition for under $1000 and got this one for $808. The pistols markings are mostly crisp and its nice to finally hold a bit of history in my hand at last.
My biggest question is what import company do these marks belong to so that I may possibly trace this guns past.
Also I hear comments on how sloppy these import marks are slapped on the guns. I'm glad some one some where had the idea of putting them neatly under the grip panel. Has this been known to be a regular practice.
