John is right on. Essex produced only frames, meant to be sold to gunsmiths and home builders who wanted to take advantage of the readily available surplus parts back then. I had an Essex framed pistol, with the balance being all GI National Match, which shot pretty well.

In essence, (or Essex?), it's a parts pistol.
