I'm a bit confused about some posts I've seen on a local guntrader board. Several posts list
a "real deal" WWII 1911 with the serial number placing the production in the '44 or '45. I don't dispute that, but weren't those the same guns used through Korea, Vietnam and basically until Grenada? To the best of my knowledge the US military never ordered new sidearms until the introduction of the M9, or am I wrong? Are there US property 1911's manufactured after WWII?
