Government Model MK IV Series 80 45 ACP with Pachmeyer grips
Manufactured 1983, I purchased used in 1985 with very few rounds down the barrel from a shipmate.
Original Barrel has been replaced with a Swenson Semi Drop-In Barrel 1911 Government 45 ACP 1 in 16" Twist 5.75" length with .578"×28 threads to accommodate compensators and Silencers.
I will provide Original Barrel at no extra charge if found when unpacking in North Carolina later this year at no charge. Aftermarket adjustable sights were also installed.
Don't like the compensator? Then remove and add a thread protector. Available at Amazon and other online stores. Just search for: .578×28 Thread Protector or 17/64 x 28 Thread Protector
Have to admit that staking in the front sight was not perfect so added JB weld. See photos.
The finish on the exterior is not perfect.
(3) 7 round magazines and soft case included
Approximate Round count on original barrel: 250
Round count on extended barrel: 30
Buyer pays for Transfer costs. Let me know where you want to perform the transfer Yelm /Puyallup/Bonney Lake areas preferred.
Do you wonder why I am selling? I have Brain cancer and this type of cancer does not have a good prognosis for a long life. Wife would not know what to do with my weapons. I will be going thru Chemo and radiation treatments very soon. I hope for a long life but need to plan for a short one. This is my baby and hate to part with it.
