This is an old topic, but I'm surprised nobody's answered the question. Here are two movies I've seen which have similar guns:

(1.) The Untouchables

(2.) 3000 Miles to Graceland

Not pearl grips but Letters from Iwo Jima needs an Ivory gripped M1911.

Just photographed and then uploaded this from inventory :D Could have sworn that some IMFBD pages needed a blued M1911 with Pearl grips. But now I can't find any. Hmmmmmm.

BTW, this gun is not blank adapted (obviously by looking at it). The ejector port would be enlarged and the barrel section in the ejection port area would have machine marks as all lock up protrusions are removed to all for 'straight blowback' of the .45 acp blanks. But it's a beauty and a rare gun so I think I'll wait. ON another note, the finish of the deep blue is so shiny that it's like a black mirror. It was hard to photograph without seeing reflections in the black shiny surface. Not THAT's a high polish! :D

Morgan Freeman in RED used a blued one with pearl grips.

Certainly not too old for me to tell MPM that that is one beautiful pistol. ;)

It always helps to hear feedback from IMFDB members re: the pics.
