I know we have at least one 1911 aficionado on the board that could help me out. My friend inherited a ton of guns from a relative and he has never owned a gun in his life. I’m trying to help him figure out value on some of them. The one in question is a colt government 1911. .45 acp and stamp on it is c34904. The “c” could be a “g” because the gun is in rough shape. From colts website it says it could be 70s era or 1916. Can anyone help me out?

I'll get you in the ballpark, the more pics the better. Overall condition, and any/all markings on the pistol please, slide and frame markings. Most likely a commercial 1911, and if in rough shape like you say with rust and pitting, it's life is relegated to shooter duty, as refinishing/restoring kills big collector value to most.
