just one of these things that I know has gotta be bullsheet, but still a little voice is saying "what if". Mind you, the comment about nickel plated sort of kills any possibility of real value.
tempted to ask serial number, then reference to this list:

Colt 1911 .45 ACP Production Statistics and Serial Numbers |
it wouldn't open for me but sounds like BS if its sub 1200, really should be 2500 if its not completely destroyed
My FFL has a 1917 with period specific magazine (only half blued) beautiful
oh and nickel plating? if you need the unplated parts to fix up another one it might be worth something otherwise nada.
