Looking for Colt 1911A1 all matching arsenal rework Ok Tri-counties area or 160 miles

[Tim padilla]

Thanks for reading my post Calguns folks.Like the title says I'm looking for early 44 s&w special hand ejectors from collector grade down to shooter grade.I see a few pop up from time to time but there usually too far(I'm in Ventura county and there in Bay Area ) not sure if getting my C &R will help facilitate me getting these off places like gunbroker but in the now I'd love to see if anyone within 200 miles round trip has one or four that are not doing much for the owners.Im also looking for s&w 1917,1937 Brazilian contract , 38/44 HD, S&W Victory heck even looking for Webley revolvers...No buffed out blended backyard refinish guns unless your trying to unload it on the cheap I'd rather have a 10% finish and a clean bore.I have several firearms that I keep for trading if you would like to go that way.Items like prelock smiths,Colt SAA 2nd and 3rd gen ,Benelli M3(HK import) Randall Knives just to name a few plus I can always do cash.PM me with any questions.Tim Padilla Coastal Trailer and Fabrication Ventura Ca

Looking for Colt 1911A1 all matching arsenal rework Ok Tri-counties area or 160 miles

Like the title says I'm looking for a Colt 1911A1 to buy as a gift for my father who fought with one (101 Airborne 69-71).He carried(To his memory) a Arsenal rework in Vietnam as backup to the M-60 he carried for 9 months in the Central high lands until he was wounded in his lower left leg by RPG shrapnel and lost in between the chaos.I'd like to find one before Christmas so my start is now since I know it might take a bit.All parts matching is important to me , perfect finish not as much .And first thing is no im not cheap and understand firearms pricing in todays(CA)current market.If I could find a gun that's 65-90 % finish on it with a bright bore that would be ideal.Arsenal reworks are ok with me as well , there usually stamped on the left side of the gun behind the trigger guard with initials from the place they were gone through such as SA,RIA,etc...If any of you give me a great lead on one that isn't maybe your gun and it works out in a sale and me being happy with the purchase I have no problem giving you a quality firearm from my collection and paying for the dros for you to take as well.Nothing too crazy but a ruger p89 , charter arms snubbie, French 32 auto, maybe a savage riot 12 gauge ?! Cross that bridge when we get there but I do show gratitude If somebody lends a hand my way .Thanks Calguns community in advance.Tim Padilla
