This pistol was produced in the 1st contract of 1917 and virtually all pistols from that contract were issued & saw hard service through remainder of WWI, WWII and Korea.

CONDITION: Extraordinarily fine. Overall retains about 99% strong orig factory brushed finish blue with only the most faint of muzzle edge wear from simply being handled over the years. Overall appears to be new & unfired. Grips are crisp with one or two chipped diamonds and show very light diamond point wear, again from simple handling. Mechanics are crisp, brilliant shiny bore. 4-36117 JR243 (8,000-12,000)"
