Heckuva find and congrats! The s3 and s6 marks are from Army assistant inspectors for subassemblies of the revolver.

Love this FORUM...because of guys LIKE YOU!
Guns are just machines and without you they can do no harm, nor any good
Very nicely done gun
Good shooting too
Super sweet looking custom work. I dig the old school hammer and trigger jeweling work. Nice “pop” and contrast. Makes you wonder who was the smith, (more like an artist), on it. Congrats on the excellent find!
That's really very tastefully done both in concept and execution. Many times I see a half-baked concept compounded by flawed execution, which is especially regrettable with a classic gun-that's not the case at all with yours. Very nice catch.
It's begging to be used and carried...
Best, jon
That was beautifully done - nice find!

I think we all do.
So listen, don't take this the wrong way. But, I'm going to need this 1917 along with a couple of your A5s, whenever you decide it's time to hang up the guns. No rush. But you know "dibs".Now I do!
Period correct custom or newer retro, I don't know.
No maker's mark.
No US property marks.
Does have a "flaming bomb" and a couple of what may be eagles adjacent to a S6 and S3 respectively.
4 1/2" barrel with brass tipped front sight. Modified to Round Butt (removed and plugged the lanyard hole and removed all marking in that area)
And its first outing after picking it up at the range where purchased.
Love this thing, basically my ideal setup for a 1917. If you ever do actually get tired of it, give me a call.
Well, since you asked, that might happen!So listen, don't take this the wrong way. But, I'm going to need this 1917 along with a couple of your A5s, whenever you decide it's time to hang up the guns. No rush. But you know "dibs".
