Colt 1911, WWI, 1913 Vintage, Cal. 45 ACP
SOLD
Description: Original Pre-WWI Colt 1911 with name N.J. Shupe stamped on the left side of the frame. Norris Josiah Shupe was a veteran of the Spanish American War, born 06/08/1870, died 02/11/1947. According to the War History Department, Major Shupe apparently went back into the Army on May 10th, 1917. When he left the Army is unknown, probably soon after WWI. The gun is one of a shipment of 500 shipped to Benicia Arsenal Army Point, California on February 19, 1913. It is in original condition, retaining 85-90% of its original blue finish, with the majority of the thinning on the main-spring housing and fore-strap. The grips are sound, but are worn with assorted handling marks. Appears to have its original two tone magazine. It has a bright bore and the action functions perfectly. Comes with 1916 dated holster (which has Major Shupe's name scratched on it), Colt Letter and other paper-work associated with Major Shupe. PRICE: $4,495 2% discount for cash or check payment.
