Opinions on the SA Suspended Pistol

[KeithNyst]

This one looks almost too, good. What do you think? Seller is listed as DB Antique Arms.
I don't think the slide recoil spring housing profile started to be used until 1918; the HP interwined barrel wasn't either.
I clearly do not have the background to evaluate a suspended SA serial range, Colt receiver pistol.

The common leg HP looks to be engraved and yes too early. BEWARE

I would be very careful with that one. IMO too high and TOO many questions!

USP font is not correct.

Technically, the USP font is correct. It's the engraved serial number that is bogus.

Thanks all, continue to learn every day.

Yep - thanks for the correction!
