Quick Navigation US Military Issue M1911 and M1911A1 Pistols Top So what do I have here? A mostly-authentic wartime production 1911A1 - or soemthing else?Īny information you can pass along will be greatly appreciated. In one place, it is stamped "S&W while in another place it is stamped "M" and in a third place "P." It carries the number 7791183, several million units higher than the frame number. Im sure it is a mix master simply because of the SA stamp on the right side of the receiver above the trigger. The mainspring housing does not appear to be correct and in fact, it appears to be a mainspring housing from a 1911-1915 manufacture pistol, made either by Colt, Springfield, UMC or North American. Initial inspection of my 'new' RR 1911A1 didnt allow for a field strip, so that will have to wait a few more days. There is really no way to tell as far as I know if any or all of the internal springs are the real McCoy. The short guide rod and the spring cap appear to be correct. The "United States Property" stamp is in the correct location.
HOW TO TELL IF YOU HAVE A REMINGTON RAND 1911A1 SERIAL
The thumb safety is also correct, as is the placement of the frame serial number. Immediately below the slide stop the letters "EJA" are stamped into the frame The slide stop is the correct one for RemRand pistols in this serial # range, as is the trigger - stamped and Parkerized, as noted for RemRand 1943-45 production. Which National Guard was not specified, but I am presuming Army National Guard. One authority I consulted indicates this is early 1944 production while a second indicated it's a number from any time in 1944 or 1945.Īnother search indicates a Remington Rand pistol with that number was probably originally issued to the National Guard. Last week, I purchased what purports to be a wartime production Remington Rand 1911A1. Hello! I've just registered with the 1911 Forum and this is my first post.
