I bought this Colt in 1988 it is my only colt that I own. In 2003 when you could openly use the Springfield research service I ran the serial number and I had a hit. It seems that it was "lost" in 1923. ;)
So I have a little provenance on where this pistol was at one time. :thup:
So enjoy the pics. :D

The documentation adds greatly to the value of the gun in my opinion (not necessarily $ value). Great piece & great story.
