Just had to do it

To shoot or not? Do you have anyone to pass it down to? If not shoot it! That is a great looking 1911 and congrats to you!

There's a possibility that I could bequeath it. Or just drive up to Memphis, or some other big city, and do a Hunter with it.

Very beautiful firearm.
Your are a better man than me. There is no way I could buy a shootable firearm and not shoot it.

The 1911 is epitomy of what a handgun should be, in my humble opinion.

Nice find Gunny.

One of the things that I liked about this pistol is that, unlike most modern guns, it's not covered in oversize roll markings, warnings, etc. What's on it is the bare minimum and is small and discrete. No bar-codes or other extraneous/ostentatious bs.

Fine example of a 1911 there Gunny. You did well with that purchase. Enjoy!

My choice of pistol is the 1911 and that is a fine example.
Congratulations
