Ithaca pistols were probably the coarsest finished pistols of any 1911A1.  This seems puzzling since they were previously a manufacturer of sporting shotguns and as such they must have appreciated the importance of cosmetic appearance. This is illustrated when looking at this photo. Visible is the Ithaca "double-arrow" proof mark on the left forward side of the trigger guard. Factory proof mark symbols stamped on the upper left side of Ithaca trigger guards beginning intermittently at about serial number 900,000, and continuing through the end of production.
