Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Designed by John Moses Browning and manufactured primarily by Colt and Springfield Armory, the Model of 1911 served as the premier standard-issue sidearm of the United States Armed Forces for over seven decades. Springfield Armory produced a limited production run of M1911 pistols between 1914 and 1917 to supply U.S. military forces prior to World War I. Following extensive service during the Great War and World War II, surplus military handguns were periodically processed through government ordnance depots (such as Ogden Arsenal and Rock Island Ordnance Depot) and made available to National Rifle Association members through the Director of Civilian Marksmanship (DCM) sales program during the mid-20th century. This specific handgun, serial number 107410 manufactured by Springfield Armory in 1914, represents a true piece of American martial history with impeccable provenance. The frame displays the unmistakable Springfield Ordnance Flaming Bomb mark above the magazine release, alongside the "OG" inspector stamp indicating historical arsenal overhaul at Ogden Arsenal. What elevates this offering into an elite historical grouping is its accompanying original DD Form 1149-2 and DD Form 1172 Requisition and Invoice/Shipping Documents from the Rock Island Ordnance Depot, explicitly recording the sale and shipment of serial number 107410 to its original civilian purchaser via the NRA DCM program for the total sum of $17.00. Presented alongside a rich WWII field kit—including a U.S. leather holster, web belt, canteen setup, and multiple period magazines—this serial-matched document ensemble offers an irreplaceable opportunity for advanced U.S. military arms historians and advanced 1911 collectors.
