  Hello all. I purchaesed a 1911 a few years ago and I am not sure what I have. I looked up the serial number and it said that it could be a Union Switch ands Signal or a Colt. It has a Colt slide but does not say colt on the frame. On the mag release side behind the triger are the letters GHD, on the trigger guard on the fron is a W. The serial number is 1687155. There are crossed cannons on the side just forward of the hammer. There is also some writing on the frame above and forward of the serial number. I can sen pics but can't figure out how to upload them here.
  
  Thanks,
  Rick

  Do you mean the slide is marked Remington Rand and the frame is marked AR Sales?
  
  If so you have a parts gun made up of an army surplus slide and other stuff mounted on a rather cheap aftermarket frame. Resale value is low. If it shoots well for you, that is about all you can expect.
