HERE IS A TOP EXAMPLE OF A US WW1 ISSUE LATE 1918 PRODUCTION  COLT MODEL 1917 REVOLVER IN 96% VERY SHARP CONDITION.  OF COURSE IT HAS AN EXCELLENT BORE AND IS ALL MATCHING.  THIS IS MUCH MUCH NICER THAN YOU USUALLY SEE AND IS REALLY SHARP LOOKING.  IT APPEARS TO HAVE SEEN VERLY LITTLE IF ANY SERVICE USE.   THESE PISTOLS HAVE HAD A LONG CAREER AND MANY WERE EVEN ISSUED TO US POST OFFICE EMPLOYEES. AFTER WW1 MANY WERE PUT UP IN STORAGE AND THEY WERE REISSUED IN WW2.  BRAD PITT EVEN CARRIED ONE IN THE RECENT WW2 MOVIE “FURY” .   THEY USE HALF MOON CLIPS OR .45 AUTO RIM, BUT YOU CAN JUST US REGULAR OLD .45ACP ROUNDS YOU WILL JUST NEED A PENCIL TO POKE OUT THE SPENT CASES. THIS IS A VERY NICE LATE PRODUCTION EXAMPLE WITH THE EAGLE HEAD PROOF.
