Description:

Measuring 32 inches tall, 50 inches long and 8 inches wide, this is a rare large scale training model of the Colt Model 1911A1 semi-automatic pistol as used for U.S. military classroom demonstrations. As it sits on its stand, it is 39 inches tall. The slide is mobile, with a spring loaded hammer, a mobile slide catch and a functioning magazine catch, which when depressed releases a large scale model magazine. A length of pipe extends down from the trigger guard, with two reinforcing sections on the front strap for mounting the display on the included custom floor stand. Also includes the recoil spring separately. This exact training model was featured in an episode of the television show American Pickers as picked by Mike Wolfe!

Rating Definition:

Fine with general wear and handling evidence. The bottom edge of the barrel bushing is broken (broken piece included separately), the edges of the recoil spring guide are broken (incomplete, one piece include separately), the recoil spring is included separately, the hammer does not rebound, otherwise the slide is able to be racked and the magazine properly releases. This impressive large scale U.S. Model 1911A1 trainer would make a fine centerpiece in any gun room and improve any 1911A1 collection immensely!
