Guys, please assist me.
An elderly gentleman asked my help in evaluating his Colt 1911 .45 ACP, serial # 28xxx. I don't know the year of mfg. or anything else. He said it was "98% finish". I only see him at church, so he didn't bring the pistol.
He said a man had offered him $1,050, and it had "a pony on it" (meaning it was a real Colt).
Can anybody identify the model, year of mfg., approx. value, or any other info. ? I expect to see him tomorrow. I'd hate to see him get swindled!
