Mystery Barrel

I have a 1911 Government Model parts kit thats incomplete. But it has this barrel with a stamp I don't recognize other than it's probably military. Does anyone know what the numbers and markings mean and what it's value?

Some cheap Saco maybe ?

7791193 is a military part number... standard military replacement barrel.


believe 85 is the year of manufacture

just proves I'm older than Tim or Chris

The M means it was magnafluxed.  If it had been installed, it would have a P stamped somewhere indicating it was proofed.  I believe the barrel is a chrome lined service barrel not NM.  

Any other marks?

To go out on a limb here; I think most of us are older than Tim and Chris.
But I am catching up to you Jglenn

No other markings. Just the numbers, and the M. What brand of frame and slide would have been used with this barrel? I have a bushing, slide stop pin, firing pin, extractor, ejector, firing pin spring, plunger tube, plunger spring and ends, trigger, sear spring, magazine release, and grips. Oh and Mil Spec sights. All appear to be new never used. Not a mark anywhere.

These should fit any US GI 1911.  It is probably a drop in fit.
