that is not the trigger bow,. the trigger bow is what the trigger shoe is attached to, the shoe is the actual thing you put your finger on, the bow surrounds the magazine in the grip and actuates the sear, thus firing the pistol. FWIW. great vid though and a beautiful weapon

oh shit. nevermind my comment on the m1902 video. how much are these old colt models?

[str8lowrider]

how much would a gun like this cost? I have one thats military issued and has 1905 1911 and 1913 ingraved on them?

[MrColt45acp]

@str8lowrider Unfortunaltely they cannot be appraised without seeing it. Originality, finish and overall condition are all contributing factors in determining the value.

thanks for watching!

Just So Much To Learn !

what sort of mag is that it looks conspicuously 1911

[MrColt45acp]

@SacoreyRugger this pistol design is the grandfather of the 1911. The 1911 frame angle is different and the magazines will not interchange.

thanks for watching

i'm willing to bet that many of the ones in Britain were destroyed when they passed their recent firearms band!

[MrColt45acp]

@jayrod68 I've often wondered what kind of cool old firearms are collected in the gun "buybacks" and destroyed without anyone understanding the history they represent.

[lynette1953]

does this have the same issue with the retaining pin and the slide coming off?

[MrColt45acp]

@lynette1953 Yes, that is the common point of failure in this early Browning design, the slide removed off of the back of the frame. That flaw is corrected in the 1909 design.

thanks for watching!
