Manufactured in 1943, the left side of the slide marked with the standard two-line Ithaca address, "P" on top, and the model designation and U.S. army markings on the right. The left of the frame as the "FJA" inspection mark and "P" below the magazine release, while the right side of the frame has the U.S. property markings, serial number, and model designation, as well as "7" on the trigger guard. The barrel has a non-factory polished chamber hood and is marked "HS" and "P" on the lug. Serrated slide release and thumb safety, narrow checkered hammer, short grip safety, stamped trigger, checkered Keyes Fiber grips, and an unmarked full blue magazine.

Very fine, retains 80% plus of the original parkerized finish with the balance having thinned to a smooth grey patina, primarily on the grip straps and in the form of light holster wear, and a minor takedown mark on the left of the frame. The grips are also very fine with a few scattered light blemishes and otherwise crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
