Re: 1911 Collector's Question
I have a 1943 Ithaca that was my dad's sidearm in WW2. I don't know about the originality of all the parts previous to his acquisition of it, but the finish is in extraordinary condition for a pistol that old. The only things I've replaced is the recoil spring while I was shooting it, and a set of Pachmyar wraparound grips to protect the front strap from my wedding band. I still have the original recoil spring and the original grip panels, so I can restore it to the same condition I received it in, and I have the original shoulder holster with the 2 canvass magazine holders.
