Another Pistol to Identify

Post by Grumpy » Mon Sep 24, 2007 7:39 pm

So what is this ?
One clue: The symbol on the grip is a rampant horse.
- Sorry that the picture is so small.

There`s a safety catch...................

It is and it isn`t a Colt 1911A1......and the same might be said about the calibre. Let`s just say that it wasn`t built by Colt.

It WILL fire blanks........if you can find any in the appropriate calibre but was intended to fire normal live ammo.

The catch is that it`s not a Colt........or a 1911.

hmmm...
All I can make out is 25 and some fraction....and AUTO PISTOL....some squiggles...

But the prancing pony on the stocks looks so much like colts decal...

I'm stumped. :(
