    Great Find. The fact that it is all in one piece is beating the odds. And it appears to have the original finish too. As far as I recall Springfield did not make a lot of them as they had other firearms they were producing. So I would say you have one rare 1911! The last one I saw you had to wear the white gloves so as not to affect the finish. I would venture to say it was not shot a heck of a lot. And it required a special wipe to clean off any residue.
