i'd bid if I had the $$$ LOL

that's a house!

Surreal. And wacky, just wacky to put it up on GB. The guy's so sure it's stainless, though the papers he shows say it was issued blued. I'd have to bet that it's what the papers say it is, with the bluing just chemically stripped and he's looking at bare hard steel, not stainless. That or it's a phony pony.

Complete with modern Millet sights and a ported slide/barrel. What a way to devalue something that could be a collectible.

I wouldn't pay that much for a room full of Maxim's Hot 100 list of women and a pile of 1911s.

Depends on if you get to change them out every year.

Yes

The guy thinks he got a gun worth a third of a mil, even after magnaporting and replacement of original sights, and his idea of metallurgical analysis is to "notch the gun with a file". This leaves only two possibilities - fraud or idiot.

Maybe he's related to Kevin Trudeau The "Natural Cures" guy.
