Original WW2 US Army Colt M1911A1 1943

This is a US Army Colt M1911A1 pistol from World War 2. New M1911A1 pistols were given a parkerized metal finish instead of bluing, and the wood grip panels were replaced with panels made of brown plastic. The M1911A1 was a favoured small arm of both US and allied military personnel during the war, in particular, the pistol was prized by some British commando units and Britain's highly covert Special Operations Executive. This particular 1911A1 has the serial number: 927349 and was manufactured by Colt in 1943. The gun is deactivated to current standards and the slide, trigger and hammer move freely. The magazine is removable.
