Remington Rand 1911 was made in the 40s,value for one with all original parts would be between 1000-1500,,with aftermarket parts the value drops to a shooter grade pistol but still should value between 400-500 and may be a bit more if a collectors looking for original parts to restore another pistol or wants to take on the restoration project. Just my Opinion, OMV.

It all depends what "Good Condition" means...if in NEW conditon it bumps over 2k.

Not a challenge, just a question: Why so much?

What more do you need?

That particular pistol costs $2k for the same reason a P7 M13 costs $2k.

WW2 US military. All that stuff has gone over the moon. To find MINT condition in those pistolas is getting tougher.

Opinions vary i guess.

It's really no big deal, but it's kind of like, "Ahhh!"

Just to alleviate the angst about destroying a 1911, this morning I converted it to a 22 caliber target pistol. Tomorrow it might be a 45 again.

Happier now guys??? Cheers >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> BTW: black powder 1911 conversion kit for sale..............

Yes! Much happier.

[Joeaksa]

A lot happier. Sad to tell you but doubt that anyone will buy a ".45 auto black-powder conversion kit" to ANYONE!
