Springfield Armory 1911

[Katfish Kern]

I purchased this gun a few years ago from a buddy in a jam. I gave a couple hundred dollars for it, but havent been able to find an accurate price for this particular 1911. Any Ideas??

You probably already know this, but a few searches on GunBroker and AuctionArms might be helpful. You'll want to see what actual bid/sale prices have been, not the asking prices that are getting no bids.

Throw in the dog and I will take it off your hands for $300. :D

Seriously though, a little more info would help, namely model number, age, etc. I can't find one with that type of finish on their website so I assume that is an older model or a custom job.

I checked out those websites, but the images that were provided were 1911's but not they did not look like the model I have. Also they prices seem really high. I only paid $200.00 for this gun. And the prices that I saw were all over $800.00. I know they are good guns...but I dont seem to fall into many deals like that.

Hey Buzz..the slide states model of 1911-A1 CAL .45
I havent found one that looks like mine either.

If you send the serial number to Springfield Armory, they can tell you model and manufacture date. That should help you get a more accurate value.

Thanks Clown

looks like someone took a parkerized full-size loaded pistol and polished the grip frame and safeties to give it a duo-tone look. I honestly think it would be worth less in its modified condition, but I like the parkerized. Either way seems like a good deal when new ones are around $750 and my local shop can't get or keep them.

Rear cocking serrations and none up front tell me it is a mil-spec model with some additional work done to it. Front strap checkering, BT grip safety, Novaks, chrome or nickel frame.
