last year had the chance to shoot a wartime manufactured 1911 government colt of a fried of mine in switzerland ...
he is a retired officer of the swiss army with a huge collection of WW2 US equipment and also arms
i was really surprised about the recoil - canīt say anything about accuracy coz i'm a lousy marksman - fired one whole mag (think 7 rounds) and was amzed about the craftmanship of the colt ...
originally iīm from Germany with lots of restrictions concerning handguns and especially auto-guns - like my swiss pal i also collect WW2 US Mil-equipment and without arms such a collection is incomplete!
i own a M1 Garand, M1 Carbine, Thompson M1928 and Thompson M1A1 - all of them deactivated but in very good condition!
my absolute fav. is the M1928 due to the high end finish of the parts and high end manufacturing in common -hope somewhen i will get the chance to really shoot with a life-fire one - is a ex-belgian Army Thompson in almost like new condition except the deactivation ...
see attached pics of my small collection ...
