Early transitional 1912 Colt M1911 s/n 4415

I've learned to question a 1911A1 that doesn't have the take down scratch as one that may have been refinished. If I found and bought one that was in perfect original condition I would be very careful not to scratch it as I would surely be an idiot for doing so but if all being the same but for a scratch I would not hesitate to buy one with a scratch and I feel the scratch takes nothing away from the value of the pistol. JMHO

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.
