It was shipped as 1 of 1 to Mexico City. Glad to see it again. I collect mainly Colt 1911's.
It is fun to revisit an "old friend" when you see it come around again. Sometime you end up kicking yourself for selling in the first place.

I don't plan to sell my WWII Navy Colt 1911, or the SAA Colt .45 my Father carried in the South Pacific.
