Lot 3476: U.S. Colt Model 1911A1 National Match Semi-Automatic Pistol

Originally produced by Colt in 1944, this pistol was subsequently selected for upgrade to a National Match competition-grade pistol. Serrated Patridge blade front sight and Kensight adjustable rear sight, with a Colt "NM7791435" slide, "7267718/NM" bushing, and "NM 7791414" barrel (numbered to the frame), and a "FJA" frame with "2", "P", "RIA", and "NM" stamps. Equipped with a long serrated adjustable trigger, serrated narrow hammer, checkered front strap and mainspring housing, checkered grips and a full blue "S" magazine with three non-matching hand marked numbers. Provenance: The Allan Cors Collection

Very fine as arsenal upgraded to National Match configuration, retains 98% of the attractive dark parkerized finish with some light edge/high spot wear and some scattered light handling marks. The grips are also very fine with a few light handling marks and crisp checkering overall. Mechanically excellent.
