This is a very good example of an early production, rare Remington-Rand Model 1911A1 that was produced in the Colt serial number range by error. This pistol was produced in the 1943 time frame production block. This example has the early first pattern New York slide markings of: "REMINGTON RAND INC./SYRACUSE, NEW YORK". It has the standard fixed sight with the early checkered smaller parts such as the slide stop lever, the thumb safety, and arched main spring housing. The left side of the frame has the initials of: "FJA" Frank J. Atwood the US Ordnance inspector assigned to the New York District to inspect Remington-Rand pistols. The pistol has the correct "P" proof below the magazine release button and on top of the slide. It has the early style serial number markings of "No 953230." It is fitted with a High Standard barrel marked "HS" and "P" on the sides of the lug and it is fitted with a set of Keyes Fibre brown plastic grips. It is complete with one all blued "S" marked WWII magazine.

Fine condition with 70% of the thin dulite finish overall, with even wear on all the metal surfaces. The grips are in very good condition with nice distinct checkering on both sides, with light wear across the tops of the checkering. Mechanically excellent.
