I have a Remington Rand U.S. property marked, couldn't swing the cash for a Colt. Very nice!

It appears to be 1918 production. a six digit serial # beginning with 3. I personally took this firearm apart, ultrasonic cleaned, lubed and inspected.

Condition, the area you live in, and it heritage all play a role in the value of the gun.
Honest appraisal? I'd have to see it.
Judge by the pic you see above as a reference. I've seen/worked on 20 or more U.S. property 1911's over the years, "I" have never seen one in that condition.
I saw on gun-broker same condition gun listed for $4,400.00?
We came across the gun listed above and offered at what I believe a fair deal.

saying that: I'm gonna kick my self in the ass for not keeping it one day....BUT my kids can't digest metal parts. although....they may have been able to the wood grips but there went the value.

Thanks MD Shooters!

For you 1911 aficionados, this 1918 Colt isn't the rarest of the earlier Army model BUT it's unbelievably well preserved. All original, barrel is still covered in blueing, grips are unworn (except for small initials "FNH") and shows minimum holster wear. I doubt if it has fired more than a hundred rounds.

O, one more thing,

IT'S MINE BITCHES!!!

Wow, congratulations. A fantastic purchase.

With that out of the way, pictures are essential. Please.

As soon as I get my grubby paws on it in my house I'll take detailed photos. It's a beauty.
