Dang it!
re-Howdy Big Gee...
That's what I get for lumpin' all 1911s into the same category...and
not readin' the whole thread. My term for the originals is WW1 era,
though I know that the A-1 version came years after the Great War ended.
As far as I know, the three that you mentioned were the manufacturers
for the pre-WW2 pistols. Seems like I've heard that Winchester made
a few, but my records are limited here. I've never SEEN a Winchester,
but I've never seen a live Bengal Tiger either. The man to ask is
Dana Kamm...aka dsk. If anybody would know, he would.
I'd like to know myself. Like I said...I mighta been drunk, and I ain't
touched a drop in 25 years.
