IN 97% EXCELLENT ORIGINAL CONDITION WE HAVE VERY DESIRABLE 1941 COLT NEW SERVICE IN .45LC. THIS PISTOL WAS PURCHASED BY THE BRITISH GOVERMENT AND DELIVERED TO THE CANADIAN NAVY AT HALIFAX NOVA SCOTIA FOR SERVICE IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC. IT IS MARKED WITH THE CROWN W. VERY FEW OF THESE PISTOLS SAW SERVICE IN WW2 AND THIS ONE PLAYED AN VERY IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE DEFENSE OF CANADA AND THE COMMONWEALTH. CERTAINLY AMONG THE MOST INTERESTING PISTOLS THAT WE HAVE HAD, AND A GREAT EXMAPLE OF A CANADIAN MILITARY REVOLVER.
