9 mm Colt 1911

I guess another saving feature is the price I paid for some of these old guns. One 1911 (my DCM gun) cost $12.50 plus $4 shipping, another I bought from a private party cost $35 and a clunker that needed a few parts cost $7.00. Try to find these prices today. Even a 1911-A1 I bought from a private party cost only $100 and my DCM-M1 garand cost about $95.

Win some, loose some. Happy shooting (and driving Ed). PS, my '86 Lincoln Mark VII with 17,000 original miles is for sale (I do appreciate some collector items).
