Mystery 1911 need help identifying

[tosainu1]

Chambered in 45 acp says Japan on the barrel. I can't identify the maker from the grips and it has no other info on it says M1911A1-67 on it. The barrel is plugged making it inoperable.

Perhaps a Japanese "non-gun replica"?

I had one of those replica guns fifty years ago. It could easily be mistaken for real.

There’s also no firing pin or hole drilled for one. It’s made of soft metal that is incapable of holding together if a real round was chambered and fired…but the piece is deliberately dimensioned so genuine gun parts won’t fit.

These vintage replicas have a cult/collector following of their own. Some of the MGC-made, etc sub-machine guns sell for $500 or more. I've got an "MGC-67" P.38 Zero Series, 3rd variation (LOL) that drives the slide backwards and releases when you pull the trigger. Kinda cool.

Look Ma, no firing pin
But it does have a loaded chamber indicator pin, go figure.

Yup. Hope you didn't pay much for it.

I had one of those Japanese non-firing replica. They look pretty close to an original 1911 on the outside but very different on the inside.
