PS. More than great it looks brand new. Amazing for a 1943 pistol.

My 1911A1. Mostly Ithaca but with a Remington frame, was rebuilt in Augusta Arsenal in the 50s and looks like it went through WWII, Korea and Vietnam before it found it's way into my hands.
In fact I'm almost sure it's unissued.

Arsenal rebuilds are sought after by many collectors now, they represent a page of the US history.
