You are going to love the accuracy of that gun. I have the MKll and it makes me look like a marksman.
Very nice price. I lucked out and friend sold me mine 15 years ago for $100.
Why is it they call it the 22/45? What does the 45 stand for?

Looks good. Awesome deal.
Now I just hope you can find some 22 ammo and enjoy it.

Did you at least kiss the owner of the LGS first? Wow. Nice find.

The 22/45 models of the MKIII have grip frames that are suppose to mimic the frames of 1911s in shape, size, controls. The 45 pays homage to the original chambering of the 1911.
