New to the community here, so I thought I'd post a recent find.

This 1922 Government Model incorporates post WWI commercial pistol changes, most of which were ultimately adopted by the military M1911A1 "Transitional" models in 1924 starting at S/N 700000.

To the best of my knowledge, the pistol looks all original to me.. but, I'm would appreciate additional input.

Thanks,

Ray

Thanks Johnny... the only thing that made me wonder was the K marked barrel, similar to the Transition barrels.

I researched the "K" on the barrel along with the "P" and found that these markings began around 1920.

I also found an "F" on the inside of the frame where barrel link travels but I'm sure if this is anything interesting.
