This would even make a Glockophile cry. :( :( :( It used to be a Remington-Rand

Description for Item # 35145543

Here I have a 1911a1 or should I say what is left of one. This one appears to be made up of a welded frame. The slide it tacked to the frame. There is no bbl. The hammer half cocks and strikes a nipple making this a cap gun. What a waste of a 45, but still a neat item. There are many real parts and some homemade ones. No ffl/cr needed on this one as it is just a prop gun now, and probably always will be.

Wonder how much might be obtained in some gun buyback!? :D Probably more than it is worth!

It sold for $240.99! What was the buyer thinking? He probably thinks he can save a few of the parts and sell them again. I wouldn't give $50 for that. I swear people people will pay more for a broken gun than a working gun sometimes.

In my experience, people will buy a piece of junk instead of a quality item if they can save $5.

No ffl/cr needed on this one as it is just a prop gun nowIs that really right? Aren't there strict guidelines that must be met in order to legally convert a firearm to a non-firearm? I thought torch-cutting the receiver was one of them...
