serial #918228, 45 ACP, 5'' Colt barrel with a lightly oxidized and pinprick pitted bore showing strong rifling throughout. The slide is not numbered under the firing pin retention plate and is likely a replacement although the patent dates, barrel address, and Rampant Colt are correct for the era. The metal surfaces retain about 85% original Parkerized finish showing light scattered edge wear, spots of oxidized pitting on the frame, plus assembly and handling marks. The checkered synthetic Coltwood grips feature reinforcing ribs on the back, reinforcing ribs around the screw holes, and remain in excellent condition. Most of the small parts appear correct for the frame, the slide stop appears to be an earlier replacement, and the mainspring housing has the later coarse checkering. The slide sports the earlier round front sight and ''U'' notch rear sight. General Drewry's inspection mark as well as the various proofs and ordnance wheel remain crisp. It includes a generic corrugated box, a single Colt seven-round commercial magazine, and a single M.S. Little Company marked seven-round magazine with welded floorplate. Also included is a black U.S. Model 1916 flap holster by Boyt dated 1944. The holster shows light to moderate wear to the finish and strong stitching. A fine 1911A1 for your collection.
