IN 98+% MINT EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION WE HAVE A HARD TO FIND EXAMPLE OF AN EARLY 1919 PRODCUTION “BLACK ARMY”  COLT 1911.  THIS PISTOL IS 100% CORRECT EXACTLY AS IT LEFT COLTS.  IT WAS PRODUCED  TOWARDS THE END OF PRODUCTION AND WAS SENT TO AN ARMY STORAGE DEPOT IN SCHENETADY NY.    THESE GUNS WERE PULLED OUT OF STORAGE AS NEEDED AND SOME WERE SOLD.  THE REMAINING PSITOLS WERE ALL PULLED OUT AND USED DURING WW2.  THEY ARE CALLED BLACK ARMY’S BECUASE OF THE WAR TIME EXPEDIENT BLACK OXIDE FINISH, WHICH WAS NOT AS DURABLE AS IT WAS HOPED.  MOST OF THESE GUNS HAVE FLAKED OFF FINISH AND AREAS WHERE IT HAS GONE BROWN.  THIS IS THE FINEST EXAMPLE OF A BLACK ARMY THAT WE HAVE SEEN, ITS A REAL CORKER.  IF YOU COLLECT 1911’S THIS IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF A LATE WW1 GUN IN IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND CONDITION.
