Here is my century old 1911 Black Army. I believe that serial number 572574 puts it 1918. Is there an SRS hit on it?

Troy, Photobucket no longer works unless your paying their fees now. Switch to a different photo provider so you can post photos.
Well darn, the photos were there yesterday. At least I could see them. Must have timed out or something. Thanks for the heads up. What are the guys using to host/share photos?Quote:

Just experimenting here. First photo is approx 700KB, second and third are approx 350 KB. Pictured Colt is from early 1918.
FWIW, I have found it easier to place photos into my PC's "Pictures" file and upload from there instead of using photobucket and related sites.
