Very Fine World War I U.S. Colt Model 1911 Semi-Automatic Pistol

Manufactured in 1917. The slide bears the two-line, two-block patent and address markings on the left side and the Army nomenclature on the right, with a "UNITED STATES PROPERTY" marked "GHS" inspected frame. Fitted with a flat top rear sight, wide hammer, short grip safety, flat mainspring housing with lanyard staple, long trigger, checkered grips, unmarked pinned lanyard base magazine and a "P/H" marked Colt barrel.

ConditionVery fine, with 85% of the original blue finish, showing some minor dings on the rear sight, driver marks on the screws and a few areas of brown spotting or gray patina. The small parts show a deep Colt "Royal Blue" finish, with scuffing on the underside of the thumb safety. The grips are also very fine, with some mild dings and verdigris buildup. Mechanically excellent.
