Manufactured in 1943, the left side of the slide marked with the standard two-line Ithaca address, "M1911A1 U.S. ARMY" on the right, and "P" on top. The left of the frame as the "FJA" inspection mark and "P" (double struck) below the magazine release, while the right side of the frame has the U.S. property markings, serial number, and model designation, as well as "3" on the trigger guard. "M1911A1 U.S. ARMY" also marked on right side of frame. The blued barrel is marked "HS" and "P" on the lug. Serrated slide release, thumb safety, and mainspring housing, narrow checkered hammer, long grip safety, stamped trigger, checkered Keyes Fibre grips, and an "S" marked full blue magazine. A modern pistol case and pistol sleeve are also included. The Ithaca serial range of 120XXXX-124XXXX includes 5000 pistols shipped to the OSS on January 11, 1944, per "U.S. Military Automatic Pistols 1920-1945" (page 117) by Meadows.

Excellent, with 95% plus original parkerized finish, showing bright edge wear, a few areas of brown and gray patina, light scratches on the left side of the frame and slide, and mild handling marks overall. The grips are also excellent, with a few minor dings on the otherwise crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
