FWIW, I believe the JA stamp is the last portion of FJA, belonging to Lt. Col. Frank J. Atwood, who was the commanding officer and Chief Army Inspector of Ordinance for the Rochester Ordnance District from1943-45. His initials appear on all pistols by Ithica and Remington Rand. A fine WWII weapon you have there, JJ.

Thanks BB, you can't see it in that picture, but the "F" is there under the scratch. You can see it if you tilt the gun just right. It's say's FJA.
Thank you for your comments everyone, I know it's only valuable to me, but I will be happy to pass this old war horse to my grandson one day, he's never seen it. I have't shown this weapon to anyone in many years. I hope he'll be suprised.
Here's another picture of this old combat veteran .45

My favorite scene from this movie is when the MP's knock on his door and take one look at him and ask "Are you alright Captain?!"................."Yeah, What's it look like?"....lol!

Since this is a music thread, I'll ask a trivia question. What is the tune being whistled in the last scene of the movie Full Metal Jacket?

JJ, that gave me chills man. Some of the shots there were just incredible. The shot of the Raptor punching the SB was total tits. Enjoyed looking at the patches, who's who.
