I am looking at purchasing a gun from a friend but I have to admit I do not know much about colt 1911 and there off brand manufactures. the slide on this gun is from a colt but the frmae says that it is made by essex arms. serial numbers do not match but it does not look as though any of them have been scratched in any way.
My question is; what relationship does essex have with colt? are they ment to be part of the same gun and what serial number do I use to registar the gun?
