Direccion General de Fabricaciones Militares made at the F.M.A.P. (Fabrica Militar de Arms Portatiles [Military Factory of Small Arms]). Licensed copies SN 24,000 to 112,494. Parts are generally interchangeable with Colt-made 1911A1 type pistols. Most pistols were marked "D.G.F.M. - (F.M.A.P.)". Late pistols marked FM within a cartouche on right side of slide. Pistols are found both with and without import markings, often in excellent condition, currently more often in re-finished condition and with a seemingly endless variety of slide markings. None of these variations have yet achieved any particular collector status or distinction, unless new in box. In fact, many of these fine pistols have and continue to be used as platforms for the highly customized competition and target pistols that are currently popular. Re-finished=Fair/Poor. NOTE: Add 10- to 30 percent for finish 99-100 percent-NIB.
