SOLD COLT 1911A1 DEC 1944 DELIVERY MINT CRISP! BRITISH ISSUE

IN 98% MINT CRISP CONDITION, 100% CORRECT EXACTLY AS IT LEFT COLT ON DEC 18, 1944, WE HAVE A SUPER EXMAPLE OF A WW2 ISSUED COLT 1911A1. THIS GUN IS CORRECT IN EVERY RESPECT AND HAS THE ORIGNAL 7 MARKED COLT P PROOFED BARREL. THIS IS A TEXTBOOK EXAMPLE OF A 1944 PRODCTION COLT. IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS JUST PULLED OUT OF THE SHIPPING CARTON. WHAT MAKES THIS PISTOL VERY INTERESTING IS THAT IT IS ONE OF THE SO CALLED LEND LEASE PISTOLS THAT WERE SHIPPED TO BRITIAN DURING WW2. THERE IS A COMMON MISCONCEPTION THAT THESE PISTOLS WERE NOT ISSUED, BUT ACTUALLY THEY WERE WIDELY ISSUED TO BRITISH FORCES EXPECIALLY TO PARATROOPERS, THE SAS AND TO COMMNADO UNITS. GUNS LIKE THIS ARE AN INVESTORS GOLD STANDARD. WW2 1911’S ARE VERY HARD TO FIND THIS NICE..
