I once encountered a R Rand 1911, 1945 serial # range with no U.S. Property marking. Close exam of the frame was inconclusive as I had no know samples to compare it to at the time. Still do not know whether it was a rare R Rand (that failed to get U S property marked) or a no name manufacturer frame in the R Rand serial # range for 1945. Hi, I have a Remington M1911A1 gun produced in 1943 based on serial number info. This gun was purchased from the Tokyo U.S. Army depot in 1946. I have the original sales paper work from the depot showing the sale of the gun as used with matching serial number. The gun has been in storage since that time and was never used.
