General Specs: Colt, Year 1918, .45, 40oz, 5 1/2" Barrel
Serial Number: 133110
What an attractive Colt Model of 1917 Army in .45acp built as U.S. Property in 1918. Engraved by an unknown but very talented engraver, nicely blued, and Mother of Pearl grips added. The mechanics are in excellent condition, with a tight, solid lock-up, excellent screws, and with a bore having strong rifling and some light frosting. The gun comes with a display box and a few ½ moon clips. A full-frame vintage Colt that will be fun to shoot and a source of pride to own. Thanks for looking!
