    Question Dates of Manufacture

    First time posting on this forum regarding AO 1911's. If there are already answers to my question, please direct me to them. I recently acquired a 1911 AO 45 and would like to know the approximate year of manufacture. The serial # is: AOC353XX. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

    I had AOA399XX. Bought it new summer of 2018, and sold it a year later.
    i sold all my handguns. . . . . . . . . . except for the 1911 style pistols in .45 ACP.

    This one has a AOC prefix to the serial number rather than AOA. I believe it to be an earlier version since it does not have the bullet shaped logo stamped on the slide, but rather just Thompson Auto Ordnance and the address. Thanks.
