Exceptional World War II Remington Rand M1911A1 U.S. military pistol chambered in .45 ACP, serial number 1310940, presented in excellent collector condition and accompanied by two represented original magazines, an original WWII holster, and an original WWII military uniform.
Serial number 1310940 places this M1911A1 within Remington Rand's 1943 wartime production, making it an authentic WWII-production U.S. service pistol. The pistol is U.S. Property marked and represented as retaining its original, period-correct components.
Remington Rand was a major wartime producer of the M1911A1 for the United States military. Correct surviving examples are highly sought after by collectors, particularly when they retain strong original finish, proper military inspection and ordnance markings, period-correct barrel and grips, and associated wartime accessories.
This example is described as being in excellent overall condition and includes two original-period magazines, significantly enhancing the completeness of the package. Also included is an original WWII holster in great condition, providing an appropriate period display companion to the pistol.
Completing the grouping is an original WWII military uniform. The uniform adds an important historical and display element to the collection. Its exact collector premium will depend on branch of service, rank, unit insignia, ribbons, patches, condition, name identification, and—most importantly—whether documentation establishes that the uniform and pistol belonged to the same servicemember.
For the military firearms collector, this is considerably more than a standalone M1911A1. The combination of a desirable 1943 Remington Rand, excellent condition, period magazines, original holster, and WWII uniform creates a highly attractive U.S. military collector grouping.
