I can't get over how early this gun is. It could darn near glance to it's left when it was made and see the first one off the line! I sure can't explain the GHS absence but with it being the 13th one built that is so early that they may not have got in to all their usual markings as we've come to know them.
I would dealy love to have one of the 1917's with the grooved hammer, concave grips and GHS. And I would be totally happy with one in just average condition..you know, like the rest of my guns.
I sure have enjoyed viewing your pics.
