Standard 1911A1 Pre-WWII, "GOVERNMENT MODEL" Export Sales

With Swartz Safeties" and usually a foreign crest or foreign inscription mainly from Argentina. Vast majority of Swartz equipped foreign contract pistols were shipped to Argentina, but Argentine pistols do not have the collector interest that others or the plain domestic pistols have, because the market has been flooded with Argentine imports in recent years.

The few Argentine Swartz equipped pistols that remain in original and excellent or better condition, usually sell for less than their "plain Jane" domestic counterparts and for much less than the much rarer Brazilian and Mexican pistols. Perhaps these depressed prices represent a bargin for collectors, with an eye to the future when the supply of these extremely rare pistols dries up. Re-blue = Fair/Poor.
