WW2 1911A1 questions

[loadnplenty]

So the serial number on the frame indicates it’s a 1944 production within the Remington Rand production range. Slide is marked Remington Rand. Behind the firing capture plate there is a letter “G” stamped.

Barrel has two markings, “HS” and something other I can’t make out on the other side near the link.

Not familiar with these WW2 guns and I have no reference material on hand.
A lot of stuff on the internet, seems in a lot of the forum a people ask specific questions and they never get answered.


anyone know if this an older CMP gun? Came in the cardboard box seen wrapped in brown wax paper type material.

Serial number was intentionally blacked out.

Any help would be great. Thanks

High Standard made barrels for Remington Rand (and others) in WW2.

The other marking is a "P".

Nice pistol. I have a 1943 with an Ithaca Gun Co. slide and Union Switch & Signal frame. My Dad got it through CMP back in the late 60’s early 70’s. Here’s a reference for SN http://www.cruffler.com/ProductionDataPages/ColtAutoPistols/Model-1911A1.html
