I went ahead and picked it up for a price that was probably high for a put together parts gun but cheap for the legit .45 Colt 1950 it turned out to be. I have to admit that part of me was disappointed when the letter verified the original configuration because I`d been thinking about what a cool using gun it would be if it didn`t letter so I could have it cut down to 5 inches without messing up an original gun. I guess I`m stuck with it like it is now...
Well I can certainly trade you a 5" 25-7 .45 Colt to shoot and I can save this one for you? This is the .45 Colt missing in my collection if anyone is looking for a new caretaker.
