At least two in the bush.

Like $2000?


PizzaBert

Yes. Remington UMC is a very rare m1911, more so than Colt or Springfield. $2000 is likely the bottom of the estimate.


12rwg

Wow! Nice! So you would take this over a colt in similar condition and age?


PizzaBert

Absolutely. Colt m1911s are by far the most common of the three makers during WWI.

I have an Argentine Systema Colt I picked up for $500. I love strange/unique 1911s


Beskar_Steel96

Also have a sistema colt. "marina de guerra" (naval model). Parkerized.


Lead-and-Strings

Yessir. And for the love of JMB, please don't try to clean it up.

The only answer.

That is a 1911A1 grip safety.


12rwg

Woa, where can I get the correct vision?

Start watching gunbroker, the 1911 forums, r/milsurp.

Remington UMC cir. 1917, appears to be all original, in good condition. 2k+ EDIT: cir. 1917 assuming I'm making out the serial correctly.

12rwg

WOW, Yes it is a Remington UMC

Similar here: [https://www.legacy-collectibles.com/29549.html](https://www.legacy-collectibles.com/29549.html) It doesn't appear to have the original finish, so that would hurt the collector value severely. You need more close up pics. You also need to disassemble and get the barrel markings (as those are commonly replaced). If all original, but refinished, probably $2000-3000.


mlin1911

Can you share all the markings on the barrel? I see a few small parts are not original to UMC. Slide stop, thumb safety, hammer, grip safety, and bluing is mostly gone. $2000 is a good estimate on value. If the parts were all original, it would go much higher in value.
