because when I called him to get the serial number to look up the year of it, he just read off numbers. (Guess that is also going to throw a kink in getting a picture of it.) If I had to guess, I would say No. I can't be positive, as it is actually my Dad's gun, so I don't have it with me, and can't see it right now. I'll see if I can bum by girlfriend's camera while she is in town this weekend. I'm also about the only person on the planet without a digital camera, so can't take any pics of them now. Thanks for pointing that out to me before I made myself look like a fool again. I guess I just figured that because the serial number began with a 70, it meant it was a Series 70. I didn't realize there wasn't a Series 70 Commander. Sorry for all the questions, but I just found this place yesterday and now I have a burning desire to know the life story of my babies. Did I miss something, or was 1978 just the last year for Series 70 Commanders?įinally, do ya'll have any idea about the values of these two? Both are all original (except for the grips on the Commander), and both are in Good to Excellent shape, especially considering their age. I noticed at Proofhouse that the serial number list for the Commander ended at 1978, but I have noticed on other sights that (if I am remembering correctly) that the Series 70 ran until 1983, and have seen other Commanders on here from much later years. Am I reading that right? Also, my Commander has an F and a V on the triggerguard, one on each side. If I read the charts at Proofhouse right, the Commander was made in 1978, and the Government model in 1918. Hello all, new member here with several questions for the village elders.I have a Series 70 Combat Commander, with Satin Nickel finish, serial number 70SC62XXX, and a Government Model 1911, serial number 223XXX.
