| A buddy of mine has a 1911 built in 1918. it is pretty dirty but functions nice other than the thumb safety doesnt engage fully. There is some rust on it but I think it clean up well. What do you think its worth? |

Your description is worthless as far as pricing goes. Seriously, to have any realistic attempt made to price this with your description....................well, it ain't happening.
Pics, parts, partial SN#, finish............all that stuff makes a HUGE difference. |
| Also, lots of "mixmaster" guns are out there on Colt frames with other slides. Dating the slide isn't the same as having a real Colt from 1918 (or other maker). ID'ing and confirming the slide/frame and other parts are necessary to value it. If it's a typical mixmaster with rust and mechanical issues, $200. If it's a real Colt or other 1918 build as you described, maybe $500. |
