I'm looking at a Remington Rand 1911A1 made '42-'43. As the entire country pivoted to answer the clarion’s call. I'm also getting the husband's dress uniform, he was a pilot in the CBI. I haven't been on this forum in a while, so I hope I'm posting this in the right place. The Union Switch & Signal 1911 and the Remington Rand 1911 are unique American products made in the patriotic drive to win the war. It comes with the woman's WAAC uniform, shirts, skirts, and two m41 field jackets in great shape (the m41s are the male version because the military did not issue female versions, however service women are pictured wearing the men's jackets and this is a fine example). The grouping I'm getting is pretty freaking sweet. Now I'm about to trade that, and my mint Springfield model 1903 (yes its a 1918 manufacture) with a 1944 re-barrel for a husband and wife grouping. I always wanted a 1911 so I stumbled across this last year. The parkerization is mint, with nearly no wear except minor from the holster. I'm not embellishing when I say the condition of this firearm is 99%. It dates to 1944 and comes with 2 additional mags and a fabulous, mint condition holster. I bought this from the son of the veteran who served in the 3rd Army and carried this through Europe.
