Honestly I'm out of my league on this one. It came to me as part of a late relatives estate.
All I know about it is about what you can see. It is NOT an untouched relic. God only knows the hands and wastebands its seen and it's had some gunsmithing done to no doubt correct some of the common issues with older 1911's- mainly a turned barrel and a different bushing. Obviously it shows it's age, which makes it more appealing to me, personally. It does shoot and functions as it should. I'm not a collector and to bring this old warbird up to even mid grade 1911 accuracy standards would further destroy it's value to appreciable collectors. Hoping someone wants to give it a home for what I have in it.
