inspection marks on the barrel chamber and an "Eagle's head/s17" inspection stamp on the left side of the frame. "MODEL OF 1911.U.S.ARMY" is roll stamped on the right side of the slide, with the Rampant Colt flanked by the two-line 1897-1913 patent dates and two-line Hartford address on the left side of the slide. "UNITED STATES PROPERTY" is roll-stamped on the left side of the frame ahead of the trigger guard, with the serial number on the right side behind the slide stop hole. An "H" provisional inspection mark is stamped on the rear of the slide above the firing pin stop and on the top of the frame in front of the disconnector hole. The pistol is fitted with checkered walnut grips (right grip has very light checkering and partially cut-out diamond escutcheon surrounding the upper grip screw). Complete with a two-tone magazine and a WWI issued lanyard. Included is a reproduction cardboard carton.
