If you don’t mind me asking and I know it’s hard to say without even seeing pictures but what would be your opinion of a 1933 Colt model 1911 .45 Argentine government model original grips, finish and magazines (2) in VGC?

Do you possess one of these?

You can PM if you wish, I'm asking from a collector point of view.

I can give you more info if you wish.

Yeah. Sounds nice. Not a Ballester–Molina is it?. They are an Argentine ‘almost 1911’ a great gun for cheap. But not a true 1911

but there were genuine Colts made under license in Argentina using colt tooling. I see value there. From about $900 and up. Saw some for $2000 and up for great condition.
