1/14/20 - This is an excellent example of an early and original Colt Government Model 1911, made in 1917. There's minor rub wear on the muzzle and high edges of the slide, but most of the finish loss is on the front strap. There is also a pronounced "idiot" mark on the frame and slide from takedown. Excellent grips with only minor handling wear. Nice, two-tone magazine. 'H' marked slide. Excellent bore.
