Additional Information

The 5″ barrel is the standard length for Colt’s 1911 and 1911A1 pistols, used extensively by the U.S. military from WWI through the Cold War. Early factory barrels are distinguishable by subtle differences in link placement, lug shaping, and finishing techniques, reflecting Colt’s craftsmanship during that time. This specific example likely dates to the WWII or immediate post-war period, offering collectors a historically accurate component for matching numbers restorations or assembling a correct-period shooter. Unlike modern reproductions, early factory barrels like this one offer a level of authenticity prized in both museum-grade and practical vintage builds.
