Remington UMC ~ M1911 ~ .45 ACP

Description:
Remington-UMC Model 1911 Pistol chambered in .45 ACP. This is a World War I U.S. Contract Remington-UMC Model 1911 Semi-Automatic Pistol. It has a blued finish, a 5-inch round barrel, and walnut grips. In late 1917 or early 1918, Colt was ordered by the U.S. government to provide Remington-UMC with production drawings, sample pistols, and master gauges to produce the 150,000 Model 1911 pistols the government had ordered from them to support the war effort. In March of 1918 the initial order was increased to 500,000. By June of 1919, and the cancellation of the contract, Remington had produced 21,676 Model 1911 pistols. Because they had been made using a different set of technical drawings than Colt and Springfield, the Remington 1911 was purged from the inventory after the war to ensure parts compatibility. Fixed sights, with the two-block, three-line patent and address markings around the "REMINGTON/UMC" logo on the left side of the slide, "MODEL OF 1911/U.S. ARMY CALIBER .45" on the right, and the "E.E.C." and "eagle head/E28" proofs on the left side of the fame. Includes a pinned lanyard loop base, and diamond pattern checkered grips. The condition of this pistol is Very good. .45 ACP
