That was a great way to explain the .45 colt/LC question, thank you. The grips are most likely aftermarket I think. I purchased a collection from a widow recently and her husband had been very active in target shooting and even a lot of competition target shooting. I was told that some of...

Thank you all for your help. The difference in value according to the blue book is so much so I wanted to ask in case there was something really special about the differences. For a 95% grading, it shows $650 for .45 ACP or .45 Auto Rim, and $3150 for .45 LC. Mine isn't stamped ".45 Long...

disregard, i see that there was additional comment already, it may have answered my question.
