    Here's another old 1911

    This is another 100+ year old 1911 that I was fortunate to pick up a few years ago. This one was shipped on 28 March, 1918 to the Commanding Officer at Springfield armory. I bought it off of a 90 year old retired Navy Admiral.

    That is a pristine example, these are such nice pieces. A quality collection!

    I shudder when I look at the scarred up, dented and abused pieces in my collection, lol.

        That's in the nicest condition that I've ever seen!

        Take care

                I'm taking a guess about your choice of background. Is that a USGI wool blanket?
