Manufactured in 1918, this pistol was part of a 1,600 piece group shipped to the Brooklyn Navy Yard on 11 February 1918. Blade front and flat top notch rear sights, the two-line/two-block address and patent dates ahead of the Rampant Colt on the left side of the slide, the Army nomenclature on the reverse, "H" on the rear above the firing pin stop plate, and a United States Property marked frame with "JMG" inspection mark. Fitted with a long smooth trigger, wide checkered hammer, short grip safety, smooth mainspring housing, unmarked pinned base two-tone magazine, and a "P/H" marked Colt barrel.

Very fine, with 85% of the original blue finish, showing a number of light scratches, bright edge wear, a few areas of gray patina and mild spotting and handling marks. The grips are very good, with a number of dents, scratches and stains, along with some tool marks on the screws. Mechanically excellent.
