    Original Cast from what I was told ????

    This came from a Garage sale sworn up and down it was sent to Remington as a pilot. What are the thoughts. For $2.00 the story doesn't mean anything either way but the casting numbers may. Rick B

    Interesting item...

    and interesting story. It does appear to be a forging (not a casting) for a 1911 - type frame.

        That's not a casting, that's a forging. Pretty cool one at that......
