IN 92% ORIGINAL CONDITION WE HAVE A NICE EXAMPLE OF A VERY HARD TO FIND LATE 1913 MADE COLT 1911 US ARMY PISTOL. THIS PISTOL WAS IN A SHIPMENT OF 500 THAT WAS SENT TO THE SPRINGFIELD ARMORY ON DEC 3, 1913. THE GUN IS 100% CORRECT AND FACTORY ORIGINAL, INCLUDING THE VERY HARD TO FIND ORIGINAL BARREL. THIS PISTOL FEATURES THE EARLY SHORT HAMMER AND WAS PROBABLY ONE OF THE LAST PISTOLS WITH THIS BEFORE THE SWITCH TO THE LONGER HAMMER WAS MADE. THIS IS A VERY ATTRACTIVE HONEST PISTOL IN DECENT UN MESSED WITH CONDITION. IT REALLY LOOKS LIKE IT WAS THERE AND DID IT AND IT HAS A LOT OF ROMANTIC APPEAL. THESE GUNS ARE REALLY TOUGH TO LOCATE IN THIS NICE CONDITION, ALMOST ALL WERE WORN OUT, REBUILT OR LOOK JUST COMPLETELY DOGGED OUT. THERE WERE NOT ALOT OF THEM AROUND AND THEY STAYED IN SERVICE RIGHT THROUGH WW2. IF YOU WOULD LIKE A NICE COLT 1911 THAT COULD HAVE CHASED PANCHO VILLA AND THEN SAT IN THE TRENCHES OF FRANCE IN WW1 THEN THIS WOULD BE A GREAT GUN TO HAVE.
