    Yes, the markings on those guns. Wish I had pictures of them for you.

    Uh,that's why I posted links so you guys could see how they are marked. Not sure they are all that way but at least a few pic's for reference. http://sightm1911.com/lib/history/singer.htm

    There’s one that sold a couple of years ago for over 400,000. Taken out of a crash, virtually like new with mags in original paper.

    Supposedly they are all marked by s, not singer.

    Somewhere, a long long time ago, if Im remembering correctly...Ive seen an un-opened coffee can like container that contained several Singer 1911's.
    They know this from the label & it was x-rayed, I saw the pics. This was many years ago, Ive always wondered what happened to that can, Singers, or not.
    The obedient always think of themselves as virtuous rather than the cowards they really are.
