Up for sale is a 1945 Remington Rand 1911A1 that’s been nickel plated hard chromed. I bought this gun with the following information given to me:
Remington 1911a1 45 Auto
World War 2 Serial number 2415792 produced April 1945
Issued to captain Berwiser (pilot)
Handover, Kansas
with original shoulder holster
Finish looks much better in person than what photos suggest. Most original markings appear partial or are missing due to plating process.
Recent research and conversations are causing me to lower the asking price. Barrel has no visible markings and bore is not in the best shape.
I'll entertain any trades - the worst I can say is no!
