Classic Tijuana job. No telling what an extra five bucks could get you while you were waiting.

Yes-agree-this is just cheap worthless junk and a waste of good metal
I will take it off your hands for say, 50 bucks.
would have added 5 if it had pearl handles.
Nice curiosity, though.

I also agree... even with the small photographs, the work seems rather crude when looked at under magnification... I hope it was rusty hulk when the perpetrator did this, and not a healthy rare 1911 specimen... what a waste. (IMHO)
