This is an exceptional example of a U.S. Model 1911A1 National Match pistol as supplied by the U.S. Army for the Camp Perry National Matches. These pistols were produced on standard WWII frames (this one is a Remington-Rand), fitted with a Colt slide with the two-line address and patent marking on the left side separated by the Rampant Colt logo, and numbered to match the frame with partial serial number "3214" on the right. Fitted with the serrated long aluminum trigger, checkered front grip strap, new checkered walnut grip panels, arched serrated mainspring housing and serrated Patridge blade front and fully adjustable Micro rear notch sights. The left side of the frame is marked with a "F.J.A." inspectors mark over a single "P" proof by the magazine release. The right side of the frame has standard property, model and serial number markings as well as a single "T" on the grip frame, "SA" below the model marking, and "NM" on the trigger guard bow. The top of the barrel is marked "45 AUTO" and "NM7790313" and serialized to match the frame and slide. The front of the barrel is fitted with the standard NM barrel bushing which is marked "7267718" over "NM".
Very fine as arsenal refurbished and upgraded to National Match specifications by the U.S. Springfield Armory with 99% of the dark post-war parkerized finish remaining, some light handling marks, slightly light slide markings, and small takedown mark on left side of frame. Grips are excellent with sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
