Hi guys!

This is my first post in this 1911 forum. My brother came up accross a 1911 type 45 ACP caliber pistol and although he did not gave me all the markings in the pistol, he said that there was a mark saying "Remington". Does that type of pistol exists? If so. What kind of value that would bring?

Thanks.

LJB

Do a search on Remington Rand. I believe they were war pistols and they are priced pretty high.

Take Care,
Scott

LJ : If your brother does a closer look he might find it is a Colt 1911 manu. by Remington Rand mfg. 1943-45 in syracuse NY value 100% $795 down to 69% of $325 hope this will help BTW over 1 million manu.

Thank you guys.

My brother has an old (colt police positive, 5" bbl really bitted up that he got in an auction for $50) and the guy with the .45 ACP rem 1911 wanted a direct trade.

I think he would make a good deal don't you think?
