Eliot Ness' (Kevin Costner) 1911 pistol from Brian De Palma's crime thriller The Untouchables. Treasury agent Ness used his signature pistol, a military pistol issued to members of the U.S. Armed Forces from 1911 to 1984, throughout the film, including while protecting his family from gangland assassin Frank Nitti (Billy Drago).

Prior to its use in The Untouchables, this specific M1911A1 pistol was originally made for Wild Bill Kelso (John Belushi) in Steven Spielberg's 1941. The pistol was modified to fire blanks for film industry use and features a dark brown textured grip matching the polished body and a steel trigger with serial number "1536373" and "UNITED STATES PROPERTY M 1911A1 U.S. ARMY" engraved on one side of the barrel. Also included is an Ellis Props and Graphics Certificate of Authenticity. The pistol exhibits scratching to the black finish from production. Dimensions: 9" x 6" x 1.5" (23 cm x 15.25 cm x 4 cm)

This weapon is a live firearm; see U.S. live firearm notice in the Buyer's Guide.

Estimate: $8,000 - 12,000
