Standard fixed sights, checkered slide stop, checkered thumb safety, checkered magazine release, serrated arched mainspring housing with lanyard loop and a stamped checkered trigger. The hammer is the later narrow version with the checkered spur. It has a WWII barrel manufactured by High Standard, marked "HS" and "P" on the sides of the barrel lug. It is fitted with a set of brown checkered plastic grips with the small reinforcing rings with a "3" and "11" mold numbers on the inside. It is complete with one WWII blued magazine that has the small letter "R" on the lip. It is complete with a WWII, BOYT/42 marked leather holster, WWI web belt, bandage pouch and 1917 ammunition pouch.

Rating Definition:

Very fine with 80% of the original parkerized finish overall with even wear overall the surfaces. The grips are in very fine condition with nice distinct checkering on both sides, with minor handling marks. The holster is very good condition with a light color overall with minor scuffs and scratches on the face of the holster with age wrinkling on the flap. The markings are clear and the stitching is very fine overall. The web belt, pouch and bandage pouch are all in good condition. A WWII Remington-Rand M1911A1 pistol rig.
