The heart of this pistol is its WWII-era Remington Rand frame from 1945, mated to a post-war 7790314 fully heat-treated hard slide bearing the T2 stamp linked to the Israeli IMI/TZ contract. This combination reflects a correct arsenal-rebuild approach that prioritized service-ready durability.
It remains in classic GI configuration: full-size 1911 platform with a 5-inch barrel, 7+1 capacity, single-action, short-recoil, locked-breech operation, and GI controls. Features include an arched mainspring housing, short serrated trigger, thumb safety, and grip safety. The slide has vertical serrations and a non-lowered ejection port.
Sighting equipment is the original-style fixed GI setup with a staked front blade and square-notch rear. The pistol wears brown checkered plastic grips with reinforcement rings. The gray-green Parkerized/phosphate finish on both frame and slide is consistent with USGI service standards.
Markings include UNITED STATES PROPERTY, M1911A1 U.S. ARMY, FJA, C, 7, 7790314, T2, and 45 AUTO on the barrel hood. As a CMP Rack Grade pistol, it comes with documented provenance via the CMP COA (model P1911RACK, dated 09/14/2026).
