Brief info on the Singer M1911A1 U.S. Army

Only 500 of these Singer pistols, which bear the markings S. MFG. CO. and Elizabeth, NJ. U.S.A. on the left side of the slide, above the portion of the frame where the slide stop lies were made.

The Singer guns, in their original form, come in highly polished Du-Lite finish and are specially numbered from S800001 to S800500. They are the most highly sought-after 1911-type pistols by collectors due to their rarity and mystique.

They were made from scratch by the Singer Sewing Machine Co. in 1941 as part of an `Educational Order` contract for the US government. The US Ordnance Board wanted to learn how easily a company with no gun-making experience could tool up from scratch and build weapons for the government.

Singer managed to manufacture everything except the wooden grips, which had to be supplied by the Keyes Fiber Co.
