Acquired April 1945 T94

Don't think I posted before? This is a pistol I picked up about 9-ish years ago. No finish, theater made grips and it was frozen with the slide in the locked back position. Kinda sickly looking but for $185, why not. 

Found out the recoil spring collar was assembled incorrectly at the muzzle end, jammed tight and the recoil spring itself was in pieces. Got it apart, reassembled correctly and now it functions. I've run about 2-3 magazines worth of ammo thru it. It resides most of the time in this shadow box with other period nicknacks. Found an original WW2 patch for the 152nd Engineers so it kinda fits the theme!

Nice display! I really like GI custom grips.
