Brief info on the COLT M1911A1 1924 Tansition model: 1924 is the year the improvements where added to the Model 1911that made it the 1911A1 but in 1924 they had not decided on the new model designation thus the “transition” pistols are marked "Model of 1911 U.S. Army". The 5 major approved changes to the old model (1911) included: 1. Extending the tang of the grip safety. 2. Finger clearance cuts were added to the receiver. 3. The mainspring housing was knurled and raised. 4. The trigger face was knurled and cut back. 5. The width of the front sight was increased. On May 26, 1926 the official designation for the “New Model” pistol was changed to “Pistol, automatic, caliber .45, M1911A1” by approval of the chief of the Ordnance Technical Staff and the Ordnance Committee. Drawings however were not approved showing the new designation until January 27th 1938. Consequently the 2349 pistols delivered in 1937 still retained the “Old Model” slide marking of “MODEL OF 1911 U.S. ARMY” rather than the official marking of “M1911A1 U.S. ARMY” that had been moved to the frame for 1838 and later production, and are also “Transition” pistols. The nomenclature “Transition” is not an official Army designation but is part of the vernacular of pistol collectors. Hence the term is, to some extent, open to interpretation. The serial number ranged from 700,000 to 710,000. The Inspectors cartouche on this pistol is the first type (with single outer circle) used under the authority of Walter T. Gorton Captain, Inspector of Ordnance, and is stamped after finish. Any questions: info@modelguns-worldwide.com We ship to the U.S. and Europe.
