Great find!

Great pistol, Zilmo!

Personally, I'm torn. It almost seems sacrilege to me to own a pistol that will never be fired.

That said, you and the rest are correct. It would be a shame to change it in any way :(

Lots of "experts" on the 1911 forum telling me that:
A. It needs to be cleaned.
B. The wax and grease on it are not original.
C. No one has ever seen a box like that before.
D. If you can't shoot it, it isn't worth having.

God I love internet forums.

That is because they are all jealous Zilmo!!!:)

The cosmoline will not hurt it, after all they are stored like that for future use.

My Friend that is one of the reasons I spend most of my time on this Forum, do a search on the internet about everything you mentioned..............

None of the members on the 1911 are real Collectors......................IMHO.......


Clyde

The only real collector on that forum is John Holbrook. He has a collection of Military 1911's that should be in a museum!!!

I had the mods delete my thread. I got really tired of the BS.

Good for you, you bought it because you like it and want to add it to Your Collection ............. That is the Way It should be......................



Clyde

I dream to have one of these "Jewels" one day and at the same time, I hope I don't find one I can afford............'cause I will shoot it!. Nice score!


BTW: I know this thread is old but, new to me. :p
