    Anyone seen these markings? 1944 Colt Commando shipped in 1944 to the US Maritime Commission. My Victory was the same and shipped and marked to the Boston PD. Any info appreciated. Thanks, Big Larry

    New to me 1932 Colt ACE

    Kind of got sidetracked with this pistol. I saw it, I liked it, and I bought it. Outside of a pre war Ace NIB, this one is near. Pretty close to 98%. It is a 1932 pistol 2nd year. Having a custom box made for it. It sure is beautiful. Big Larry

    The elusive M46

    Collected several variations of the M41 and thought it time to get a nice M46. After some searching, I found this one on Guns Intl. Made a deal with the seller, and bought this one. Like new in its original numbered box with parts sheet and spare magazine. Pistol was shipped June, 1965. Big Larry

    S&W M1917 # 6929

    Just bought a 98%+ S&W M1917 # 6929. It has the hammer with the grooves like the RM and the very early stocks, which should be pencil numbered? but aren't. Faded away? GHS inspected.
