I went to the Columbus, OH Pro Gun show and picked up a NIB Norinco 1911A1 with 2 mags and brush for $360 OTD from a private table seller. The only thing I noticed that is not exactly GI are the sights which are 3-dot.
As I have read on previous threads, the finish is not impressive, especially on the slide. S/N is 528XXX. This was the second of two that this guy had. The other guy paid the same as me. (I overheard the first guy tell someone what he paid, before I bought mine, but I did not have to bring it up to the seller, he told me about the first purchase honestly.)
I never thought I would buy another 1911, but I wasn't able to make any other deals, so I did this one. I may have paid a little too much, but I keep reading that the supply is drying up, and besides I drove 85 miles to get there and paid $7 to get it, so what's another few hundred? poppy
