Remington Rand 1911 A1

[mrclark303]

When the 1911A1 was replaced with the 92 in US Service, were they refubished and placed in war reserve store, or were they sold off on mass?

I was issued several .45's during my Marine Corps service and the armorers weren't picky about keeping them original. I have a minty High Standard barrel with link and pin, also Little and Risdon mags if you decide to restore it. PM if interested.

The grips appear to be the correct Keysport Fibre with the large rings.

The trigger needs to be replaced with a stamped WWII trigger. The original Remington Rand came with a General Shafer magazines. They have a G stamped on the floor plate.
Hope this helps.
