Yes, Ithaca did manufacture 1911 .45 ACP handguns without their name on them. These were produced during World War II as part of a contract with the U.S. military, and they were marked with the U.S. government's acceptance markings rather than the Ithaca name. Some of these pistols were also marked with the "Ithaca Gun Co." on certain components, but the main frame did not bear the Ithaca branding.
No, all 45's made during WW2 were given a serial number. If yours does not have a serial number, thenm someone removed it. If no serial number, by law it is an illegal hand gun. however, the parts can be sold separate. which is legal, but not the frame......
an Ithaca NY 1911 serial 832480 is a 1942 Colt
Impossible to answer without the serial number.
Can't be answered without the serial number.
your 1911 was made by Ithaca in 1944
your 1911 was made by Ithaca in 1943
Ithaca and Remington Rand didn't manufacture or ship wartime 1911's in numerical order. I'm afraid the best estimate you'll get is that it was made about 1945 as part of the effort to supply soldiers in WWII.
