Steel cased Ball 45 Caliber M1911

[AZPhil]

Hello Gent's,
I just saw Hal's post and thought I would share my Steel cased 1943 45 caliber ball.

BALL caliber .45 M1911(Lot F.C.1879)

I was given this years ago and have kept it in a dry clean storage, But I don't want to clean these. They sure could use a tumble, But that would take away that patina/corrosion
These are from the Evansville Ordnance Plant. The made millions a day, So not rare

Nice one Phil. I would just wipe them down with a rag and CLP to prevent additional patina but that is just me.

Sure thing Gary,
Nothing collectable. Just a shooter!
My wife got this for my 50th Bday. Ya Know a 45 for the 50



I think I'll take you advice John on the CLP. I have some free time on my hands and that beats a Honey Do any day!!
