old 1911
Would you mind telling me what the price range is for an old 1911?
I want a shooter not a collectors piece. The numbers don't have to match, and is a gun show my best option?I look at guns here but mostly
they look new. Is there a web page for older guns out there? thanks

I just picked up an old Colt 1911, serial #82741 on the right side of the frame, nowhere else on the gun. It has four patent dates on the left side of the slide, the most recent being Feb. 14, 1911, so I assume it was built befor the last patent date of 1913, am I right? This gun has a laynard ring on the bottem of the mainspring housing, and one on the bottom of the original magazine. I'm supposed to get the original grips tomorrow, I would estimate it to be a 60-65% condition, it has no military markings, and I have the original barrel, although it's pretty shot out. My questions, when was it built, and without photos(it's late and I'll post some later) does it have much collector value? Perry Shooter this is right up your alley.
Thanks in advance.
