Colt US property marked M1911 manufactured in 1918

[Bucksnort justin]

I picked up this Colt M1911 couple years ago , did not pay much attention to it.  
I knew it had several incorrect parts on it. 
I put it in safe and forgot about until  yesterday . 
I got it out and was looking it over , I noticed when you pulled the slide back and dropped it the hammer would    fall and strike firing pin . I could tell it had some kind of custom trigger and hammer on it.  
If you turned to to the left when you racked the slide the takedown leaver would fall completely out sometimes . 
The trigger had about 3 pounds of pull before it went off , you could almost blow on trigger and gun would go off.   
so I completely disassembled it and what I found suprized me .  Don’t know who fabricated this trigger but it was real piece of work  .   I replaced the trigger , hammer , grip safety , mag release spring , both plungers and spring , barrel, and barrel link . And cleaned it up , it appeard it had not been cleaned in a very long time .   I will shoot it in next couple days to test function and accuracy .  And yes I know the parts I replaced on the gun are not 100 percent correct for time period this gun was manufactured .

Welcome to the forum. Nice pickup on the 1911. Looks like bubba had a hand in that one lol. Keep us posted on how it shoots. I'm hoping to pick up something similar to add to the collection at the next show or next military show. That one, despite the mentioned issues, looks clean.
