Manufactured in 1943, the left side of the slide has the two-line, two-block address and patent dates marking with the Rampant Colt in the center. The left side of the frame is stamped with a "G.H.D." inspection stamp and "P" with the left side of the trigger guard having the Colt "VP" proof and the right side of the trigger guard having the number "41". The later production, replacement parkerized barrel is marked ".45 AUTO/7791193" on the chamber hood, "M P" on the left of the lug, and "G" on the right of the lug. It has the "No" style serial number, fixed sights, checkered wide hammer, stamped short trigger, checkered slide stop and thumb safety, long grip safety, arched checkered mainspring housing, an unmarked full blue magazine, and reproduction reinforced grips. Includes an unmarked reproduction Kraft style box.

Very fine, retains 95% of the original parkerized finish with some light edge/cycling wear and a light takedown mark. The replacement grips are excellent with only the slightest handling marks and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
