My Brother's Widow wants me to buy the 1911-A1 he bought in 2005...It's the "Military Model" Parkerized, no bells or whstles. I know he didn't shoot it a lot... He just wanted it for Home Defense. I shot it a few years ago and it is still "cherry" What would a more than fair price be? I'm thinking $ 400 Am I too low? It's so sad. I was at his bedside when we both know he was taking his final cruise (he was a CPO, Cob of the SSN Permit actually. Torpedo-Man by trade. He told me to unload it as I was going back to Texas from Florida...He didn't want her to have to worry about it...Also unloaded his 2nd Generation SA Colt 45 Revolver. It was so sad. He was a fine man, very kind hearted (yet frugal with his $) She wanted me to buy his SA Colt as well....I told her no way, and that if she didn't want to give it to her Son or Son-in-Law (Both good gun guys and fine men) To hang on to it for a Loooong time and then I would sell it for her. She's taking my advice. Thanks for your comments and suggestions.
