Description:

This is a Model 1927A1 manufactured by Auto Ordnance, as issued by the American Historical Foundation as a very limited edition of only 1,500 manufactured with this example numbered 182. Standard markings and features of the model and commemorative. Complete with an extra 50 round drum magazine numbered to the gun, leather sling and large wood display case. Also included is a certificate of authenticity from the American Historical Foundation.

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The carbine retains 99% of the original blue finish and gold fill highlighted parts and markings. The gold fill in some of the letters and numbers on the left side of the receiver is absent and the safety lever stud on the right side shows light oxidation. The wood is like new. Mechanically fine. The 50 round drum is near new with a few light handling marks and a couple of minor scratches. The wood case is excellent with some light handling, edge and corner marks.
