So I posted a picture of a revolver, a lever and a bolt action. Now it's time for a really odd firearm.
Konsberg Colt 1911 Norway
1941, Made in Nazi controlled Norway.
Konsberg made the 1911 under license from Colt starting around 1917. By 1940, Norway was under German control. The Norwegians continued to make the 1911 at the Konsberg factory even under German control. This pistol was one of about 4100 made in 1941. The barrel, trigger, frame and slide are all matching numbers. No Nazi markings, the German produced pistols were not marked with Nazi stamps until 1945.
Marked 11.25mm on the slide equivalent of .45acp.. These are exact matches to a fullsize Colt 1911 barrel, 5”. The pistol is in very nice shape for its age.
Smells like a firearm forum now doesn't it?
