    Good Afternoon All, I’m hoping I’m on the right forum! If so, I could use some help identifying this Colt 1911… I took it in on a trade deal, and I believe she’s pieced together with different things, but I’m no Colt wiz. So I looked up the serial number of the frame, and it comes back as a...

    I currently own a Llama Max-1 L/F chambered in 40 cal. Made in 1995 (per serial number) I cannot find any manufacturer information and the only thing I can find is on another forum from 2005 is someone saying they contacted the owners of the Llama trademark and they told him that the model did...

    Hey everyone! Got a beautiful gun in my local store recently and I decided to take a risk and pick it up. From what I can tell, it is a commercial Steyr 1911 made in 1912 for the commercial market! That is why it lacks traditional military markings and only "STEYR 1912 MOD.1911" on the side and...

    Hello. Was hoping someone might be familiar with the intertwined "GS" marking on the bottom of the Colt 1911 slide in the attached photo. After looking in my Poyer book and other forums my best guess is that it was originally stamped "S" for a Commercial production, but then over-stamped "G"...

    I have a 1911 built in 1914 which was shipped to the Navy. Does the Navy maintain any records which would indicate which ship, station, or base it was assigned to?
