Colt Model 1911 of U.S. Army barrel
converted to a sub-caliber .22 LR barrel by R.F. Sedgley
Inc., Philadelphia, PA.
Barrel retains a vertical non-serifed "H" on
the rear of the hood. Serial number 957 is on the rear
of the sleeve and a "P" is stamped on the right rear of the
lug. Sleeve is strategically located in order for the
1911 center fire firing pin to function with the .22 LR rim
fire cartridge and so that the extractor will also remove
the spent .22 cartridge case.
Horizontal partial number "5" is present on
upper right flat of left side of barrel lug.
Muzzle of sleeved barrel - note how bore is
off-center.
Converted barrel has a blued finish. |
