what this Colt 1911 might be worth?
« on: January 02, 2004, 05:11:17 AM »
A guy I work with just showed me a colt 1911 he is thinking about selling.  It appears to be a WW1 government issue that had been parkerized recenty.  It was in really good conditons.  He asked me if I wanted to buy it and how much I would give him for it.  I'm not sure what it is worth but I figure it is worth more than I could afford right now.  Can anyone tell me what they think it might be worth?
Thanks;

My :money:  Its only worth what ever he can get! If its been refinished it prettywell trashed as a collector. make him an offer,what you can afford. he can only say no! I have (over the years) caught some real deals . If hes in a tight , you might get it for next to nothing. Before you buy ,run the serial no to make shure that you 're not receiving stolen property.
LOL
gun controll is hitting your target!!
