Colt ~ U.S. Army Model 1917 ~ .45 ACP
Description: The M1917 Revolvers were six-shot, .45 ACP, large frame double action revolvers adopted by the United States Military in 1917, to supplement the standard M1911 pistol during World War I. There were two variations of the M1917, one made by Colt and the other by Smith & Wesson. They used moon-clips to hold the cartridges in position, facilitate reloading, and to aid in extraction since revolvers had been designed to eject rimmed cartridges and .45 ACP rounds were rimless for use with the magazine-fed M1911. After World War I, they gained a strong following among civilian shooters. From 1917 to 1919, Colt produced 151,700 M1917s in total under contract with the War Department for use by the American Expeditionary Force. The revolver saw prolific use by the "Doughboys" during World War I, with nearly two-thirds as many M1917s being issued and produced during the war as M1911s were. This example still appears to be in good shape and functions as it should. .45 ACP SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Metal Condition: good Wood Condition: good Bore Condition: bright Barrels: 5.5" barrel Triggers: DA/SA Butt Pad: Colt wood grips Weight: 2 lbs 6 oz Sights: "Blade front sight, notched rear sight Item Location: Rogers |
