SN: A00555. Made in 2002, .45 ACP with a 5"" barrel. Rare and desirable best quality premium grade 1911 pistol designed, endorsed and inspected by John Jardine in Italy. Mr. Jardine worked with the legendary Armand Swenson and learned everything from him. He was deeply involved in the production of these guns, very few of which were imported into the U.S. This example is in excellent original condition with very little use. We purchased it from the original owner. Included is a copy of the letter the buyer sent to Mr. Jardine with payment, as well as a copy of an article on the Valtro from Gun Tests Magazine in 2002. Comes with factory case and cardboard box, with manual, extra mag and accessories. A great addition to any collection of custom 1911's.
