I would have hoped that whoever you had clean it would have told you if there were any cracks in the frame or other damage, butIts 80 years old, seems to be in good shape. Had it cleaned last year. Would there be any concerns safety wise? Its also has a lot of sentimental value to me, so dont want to have something break and not be able to repair with authentic parts? Any thoughts woudl be much appreciated?
You had it professionally cleaned and they didn't mention anything wrong with it?
I'd shoot it, I regularly shoot guns that have 20 years on your's. I believe the oldest gun I've shot was made in 1901, with ammo not much younger.
I'd at least put a mag through it if you're looking to keep it as mint as possible... personally I would shoot it more than that tho.
You've told, now show us the goods.
NO I didnt know that. thks for info.You probably already know, but just in case you didn't, the RS Inspection mark is for Colonel Robert Sears. Col. Sears was the the Army Inspector of Ordnance at the Hartford Ordnance District office from August 3rd 1937 - June 30th, 1941. His inspection mark is seen on pistols in the 723000-750500 range.
