Beschreibung:

.45 caliber, 5" barrel, S/N 716639. Blue finish, two-piece checkered walnut grips, Colt markings on the left side of slide, on the right side of frame marked United States Property, M1911A1 U.S. Army; on the forward flat of triggerguard is "99." Slide is number 713235, both were sold to the U.S. Navy at Norfolk. Blue finish, correct P and H marking on the frame, correct "P" on the top of the slide forward of the rear sight. Blue magazine with Colt markings. More than likely the mix up came when being ready for arsenal sales. Since the finish matches evenly this is the only logical answer. Serial number is listed in SRS records, however, the slide is not, but is sandwiched in a group that was sent to the U.S. Navy. Condition: Retaining most of the original blue finish. Little wear to the high edges, finish has nice even flow and matches well. Grips are excellent. Bore is good.
