Union Switch & Signal 1911 WWII .45 ACP
Description: SALE SALE SALE....Reduced from $7250.00 to $6750.00. This is an excellent example of a Union Switch & Signal Model 1911A1 issued to the US military in 1943. The Union Switch & Signal company of Swissvale Pennsylvania, primarily made railroad signaling equipment but received a contract on May 5, 1942 for the manufacture of M1911A1 pistols. The first pistols were accepted by Ordnance inspectors in January 1943, but the company received word that their contract would be canceled. Within a month U.S.&S. had signed a contract to supply carbine parts. On March 8, 1943 the company was officially notified that their contract had been cut back from 200,000 pistols to 30,000 pistols. However on June 26th, when the contract was nearly complete, and many of the workers had been transferred to Carbine operations, the company received a letter of intent to purchase an additional 25,000 pistols. The last of the pistols was shipped on November 27, 1943. 55,000 Union Switch and Signal pistols were delivered serial numbered from 1041405 to 1096404. U.S.&S. pistols are the second rarest of the M1911A1s (55,000 produced), only the Singer is rarer (500 produced). None of the Union Switch & Signal 1911A1s have the crossed cannons ordnance stamp. We are told these were issued to the Army Air Corps during the war. This one has retained about 95% of its original finish. There is a hint of wear around the muzzle, and minor wear on the edges of the main spring housing. Comes with original grips (Star K 27 & 28) and 3 magazines. The bore is minty. Correct 'HS' barrel. To complete the transaction, we will need a copy of your FFL, or when appropriate C&R (this qualifies for C&R license) of your choice for shipping purposes. Prices for the US&S pieces are skyrocking and are a blue chip investment into hard assets. We suggest you grab this one before it gets away! For payment we will accept personal checks, money orders, certified check or cashiers’ check, all major credit cards. Credit cards are acceptable with a 4% up-charge for processing. Personal checks require 8 business days to clear the bank, all other forms of payment receive same day as received shipment. Shipping and insurance for the transaction is $100.00. By purchase of this item, you release the seller from any liability that may arise due to use or misuse of this firearm.
