Have you got some favorites which you would like to share? How about some show and tell?

Good morning Jim still learning on how to navigate this forum I saw your thread and I thought I would put up a little porn from our friends in Hartford Connecticut:

1942 Original finish Colt WB stamped

While I wait my turn on my last 2 cmp pistol's I am always watching for lost diamond's in the rough this 84 year old girl has been lost to Father Time and 2 safes since 1942 I am the new caretaker for now .
First off a little history on 1942 Original Colt built pistols.
This pistol was built approximately a little less than 11 months since Dec 7th 1941.

1942 WB STAMPED COLT

S/N 838,978 was made either in October 42 Colt production was 10,750 pistols this month they had 3 different shipments to Springfield Armory

It could have been made in November 42 Colt production was increased to 17,400 pistols this month they had 7 different shipments to Springfield Armory

I will put in for a colt letter to narrow down production date.

1942 production increased 3 times more in 1942 over 1941 Colt manufactured 107,790 pistols in 42. Only about 17.2 % of all Colt 1911a1 production

All slides continued to have the frame serial number behind the firing pin stop.

Starting in August 1942 the Colt stocks/grips were strengthened on the inside with reinforcements on the inside of the grips and larger reinforced rings and the checkering is more corse and deeper for better griping, These stocks were used for the reminder of Colt WW2 production.

The original Finish on this Colt is Parko-Lubrite parkerized finish .

The Original barrel is Du-lite blued With the Letter "S" forward of the lug

1942 was the first year for colt to use Magazine sub contractors This Colt has a Colt-Scovill made magazine, Scovill Manufacturing Company of Waterbury Connecticut manufactured the magazine parts and the magazine were assembled and completed by Colt at Hartford Connecticut.

This Colt is stamped with Colonel Waldemar Broberg even though he was reassigned in June of 1942

Lt. Colonel Guy H. Drewry was assigned as WB's replacement His inspection stamps started around s/n 841,xxx

The crossed cannon Ordnance escutcheon used as a final acceptance of the pistol started around serial number 830,xxx these were more Predominately seen in November production pistols.

Now for some pictures

Do you mean real PORN. I was looking for info on old gun and found this page unblinkinkingeye,com on gun page bottom of list " Hit Man's Gun". I am not going to post picture I might be banned for life. (Be advised this is not for the easily offended). PS there is also a vast amount of reference material.

Walther k43 ac44 sniper,all original ww2 bringback.These were issued with 3 mags to german troops later in the war,"Hitlers Garand"

 

[Cotton69]

Here is a Hungarian Arms Works PPH,a Wather PPK clone in 380cal.made in 86.Only about 5000-7000 were made.Picked it up at a little out of the way gunshop.Amazing cond.for being 40 years old,came with box and 1 matching ser no mag.Has the fingerest grip probably required for importation,INTERARMS import.

 

[raftman]

Really neat piece, wonder if the flat grips that are out there for the Hungarian Pa-63 will fit that. They do for my FEG AP-MBP, which is also a Walther PP clone, but in .32 acp.

 

[Cotton69]

I bet pa63 grips would fit ,dont know about magazines.These did not have a magazine safey, pa63 was military ,these were commercial pistols .

 

[raftman]

While James Bond famously carried a Walther PPK, before switching to the Walther, he used a Beretta 418:

Very Nice Maybe April or May 1943 did you get a Colt historical letter ? They were not able to produce pistols in sequential order at that time, Very nice condition and thank you for sharing

 

[nehalemguy]

1943 Inland M1 Carbine that landed at my LGS. Original and unmolested with all of the correct subcontractor parts where they belong. No evidence of an arsenal re-work.
