U.S. Model 1911 X-Numbered Semi-Automatic Pistol

Manufactured at an unknown date and later overhauled by either the Springfield Armory, or Augusta Arsenal between 1925 and 1953. The "X" serial number prefix came into use in 1924 to replace numbers on pistols that had been stolen and recovered with the numbers defaced, or if the numbers had been obliterated during the arsenal refurbishment process. Standard fixed blade and notch sights, two-line/two-block address and patent markings flanking the Rampant Colt on the left side of the slide, "MODEL OF 1911. U.S. ARMY" on the right, hand stamped "UNITED STATES PROPERTY" marking on left side of frame, and a single "eagle head/S12" inspection mark also on the left. Narrow checkered hammer, short grip safety, checkered, short stamped trigger, and flat smooth mainspring housing with lanyard loop.

ConditionFine as arsenal refurbished. 75% of the thin parkerized finish remains with some pitting visible under the parkerized finish, edge wear, handling marks overall. The grips are also fine with slightly worn checkering and small dings. Mechanically functions fine, though the replacement bushing does not sit flush with the front of the slide.
