Model of 1911 U.S.NAVY. Issued 1913. complete and in pretty nice shape for a Navy side arm.
Sat in a Pacific Fleet Ship's Armory until Dec 7, 1941. Issued to a young officer with a courier pouch right after the attack. After the officer retired in the mid 70s he was asked why he kept the gun all those years. His reply..."They never asked for it back!"
It now resides with my Navy Victory, USN Mk1 knives and other USN goodies from WWI and II.
