Hey folks, I'm coming to you with the following information as my very good friend wants to trade me one of his mint/NIB classic Colt 1911's for my Browning O/U Grade II classic shotgun. I mentioned to him that I would post the information here on the forum to see what type of feedback and accurate appraisals I could receive from you guys (gals). We're looking for honest assessments as we're both good friends and of course, he feels as though his pistols might be 'worth' more, etc. I'm looking to trade him for one of his pistols and if you also have a recommendation, please feel free to share. The first is the format to the information and the following is the information itself. Thank you in advance.
