    Ok folks… I looked behind the firing pin stop plate and I don’t have a serial number there. That makes sense because my serial is 1,301,6xx which according to Poyer is after they stopped putting serial there about 1,138,000! In my original post, I mentioned that mine was an original finish and not refinished.. what do you think?? Lettering looks pretty crisp but I don’t see enough of them for comparison. I would sincerely appreciate any wisdom, etc. I’m pretty new to the 1911A1and want to learn!
