J6 1/6 Homemade WWI WWII Colt 1917 Revolver United States, approximately 1 3/4 inches long
The M1917 Revolver was a six-shot,.45 ACP, large frame revolvers adopted by the United States Military in 1917, to
supplement the standard M1911 pistol during World War. The military service of the M1917 did not end with the First
World War. In November of 1940, the Army Ordnance Corps recorded a total of 96,530 Colt and 91,590 S&W M1917s
still in reserve. After being refurbished, most of the revolvers were re-issued to stateside security forces and military
policemen, but 20,993 of them were issued overseas to "specialty troops such as tankers and artillery personnel"
throughout the course of U.S. involvement in World War II. During the Korean War they were again issued to support
troops. The M1917s were even used by members of the "tunnel rats" during the Vietnam War. Overall, the M1917
enjoyed over fifty years of service in the U.S. armed forces.
