1/31/19 - This is a very nice example of an early-1917 made Colt M1911 in all original condition and configuration. The bluing rates in the mid-90s with an area of finish loss on the back strap and top of slide. There is also some surface freckling on top of the slide and the front edge of the frame. Correct 'H' marked slide and 'P H' barrel. Excellent grips and two-tone mag with lanyard ring. Bore is shiny with good rifling.
