Hi All,
I've looked around the Internet for a site that will identify 1911's by serial number but haven't come across one. I recently took one in on trade:
right frame - Government Model C 230706
right slide - Colt Automatic Calibre 45, spelled that way, with a Colt holding spears.
right trigger guard at top - "95" in tiny lettering
left trigger guard at top - "F" with a "VP" in a triangle underneath in tiny lettering
left slide: Colt's Mfg. Co. Hartford CT. USA
It's in A1 configuration but does not say A1 anywhere on it, and it appears to be fairly old. ??????
It has had "Micro" adjustable target sights and bbl. put on it and has an adjustable trigger with original hammer. It's a real shooter and hasn't jammed once in about 100 rounds with my semi-wadcutter reloads - which can be fussy loaders in my other 1911's
I'm not an expert on these 1911's - I just like to shoot them. Any help identifying this piece would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time,
Dave W.
