Offered for sale is a very cool Colt WWI 1911 U.S. Army, Serial No. 235XXX. The gun is extremely tight and comes with an "L" marked magazine, and a barrel with "G" stamped forward of the lugs. My research indicates that this is a WWI barrel, but probably produced later than the gun. The gun has a good amount of original blue on the frame, small parts, and top and rear of the slide. Photos were taken outside in sunlight, so it will look much better in your house. It's definitely a "been there and done that" gun, but with an unusual amount of original finish for a 97-year old. The price is $1,395...now $1,295 + $35 for shipping. Please make sure that your ffl will accept shipment from a non-ffl. Post an "I'll take it", followed by a timely PM.
Thanks for looking.
