What does /k/ think of my great uncle's ww2 1911?
>>33490418
How much would this be worth? Not that it would ever be sold.
Is that the orignal finish? It looks brand new.
I'm usually not one to bitch about idiot scratches, but for chrissake don't put one on that.
>>33490453
I believe so, it has probably been mostly stashed away since the fucking '40s. My aunt said she took it in to have it cleaned the guys in the gun store were creaming their pants
>>33490439
Anywhere from $800 to $1,500
There is one similar to yours for sale on gunbroker with 9 days left to bid and it is up $2250.

What type of ammo should I buy if I want to shoot it? should I even shoot it? Should I use the original magazines?

That one definitely looks better than mine. I would say mine is near perfect condition, there are some very small scratches in a few spots

This website says it's serial number range is a 1943 manufacture date.

beat me to it

My grandpa gave me some magazines and a mag pouch from 1942. I just cleaned off a little rust with a scotch Brite pad and used them with no issues. You probably wanna pull the springs and clean out the insides too.

OP is either manlet or summerfags are here early
>>33490418
Looks like a repro desu. If it's real, it must have been refinished. There's not even any wear on the grip safety.
>>33490612
I'm 24 and my hands are normal size
>>33490685
They are not, fyi.
>>33490679

I have a hairy asshole with a big ole hemoroid
>>33490418
OP, that is a museum quality example of a GI 1911A1. If you fuck it up, I will hunt you down, break all of your little girlie fingers, verbally abuse your sister and shit in your ceramic Starbucks coffee mug..

>>33492043
Ha,ha. Nice try. Everyone knows you guys are Treasury Department.
>>33490439

>>33492308
nope
So my aunt owns the pistol and I trust she will take good care of it, she is into guns. She had it into the shop to get cleaned and now it just sits tucked away in a protective sock looking thing.
She also has the original holster and 3 magazines. I am hoping to get my hands on the piece one day...

No one cares about your fake badge and your airshit you fucking fatass LARPer.
An ATF agent doesn't just have the ability to own a glock 18. And there is a type on your badge.
Go troll some other board you shitstain.
