Description:
M1911 .45, DCM — NRA -1960's - RIA Government Arsenal rework in original arsenal box. AJ Savage Slide, Colt frame 1919, SN 594353. This looks just like it left the Arsenal 60 years ago, These were offered in the early 60's through the DCM. I do not believe it has been fired. 60 years of handling has left minor handling marks, ie, minor scuffs common with parkarized guns, the slide has been racked, disassembled for oiling, see pictures. Well tumbled and Parkerized all markings show but light, see pictures. Original Numbered RIA Box with original wax paper, other than the box label no other paperwork. R marked Magazine. While there are varying opinions of who made the slides, Charles Clawson, he wrote the book, in no uncertain terms clarified the manufacturer, In Clawson's small book 3rd edition, pg. 29 he writes, "Blueprints were shipped to A. J. Savage in August 1918, therefore, because of the time limit involved, it is not likely that slides could have been delivered before the end of the war. Furthermore, a chief inspector was only being considered for assignment to A. J. Savage at war's end, as manufacture had not reached a state that required government inspection. "Nevertheless, it is known that some of these slides were eventually accepted into the military supply system as spare parts and assembled on arsenal-rebuilt pistols." Personally I think this one spent 60 years in the box, in a closet and came out every so often to be shown/cleaned and put back away. Time capsule DCM/NRA gun in original box. $2,400.00 delivered, lower 48,except CA. FFL or C&R.
