My New 1911 *wink*
« on: January 12, 2009, 05:11:40 PM »
Check out what I found behind a vent cover this morning...

Its about 2" long, From the lack of a "made in mark", its 2 part pressed tin/ rivited construction, "victory" pressed in on the slides and bakealite gripes.  I'm guessing is world war 2 era.  Sorry for bad picture, I had to scan it as I left my camera and cable at the shop.



edit

almost forgot it actually does work.

That looks kinda cool...lucky you ! When you have a minute why don't you check Greg Martins website out for appraisals. They might be able to give you some info on it and what it might be worth.

Pin gun?

Anti: I think some of you gentleman would choose to apply a gun shaped remedy to any problem or potential problem that presented itself? Your reverance (sic) for firearms is maintained with an almost religious zeal. The mind boggles! it really does...

Me: Naw, we just apply a gun-shaped remedy to those extreme life threatening situations that call for it. All the less urgent problems we're willing to discuss.
