    I would have been all over it if i could have gotten over to bid on it and probably wouldnt have posted it here either, just because...lol. Would have just put a coat oil on it and called it good. Would like to think there is a good back story on this one. Maybe why its in the shape it is. Just a tool to the fella that carried it back when they hung from their hip like a hammer in a loop!

    Hope someone from here gets it as i bet with a little digging they could probably get most of the back story and tell it here. More story than you can get on any of the CMP stuff anyway. Just to know who and where it was carried would be worth more than money to me. Something that would travel with crusty till the end of time.

    A little rust pitting just adds character to an old 1911
