Picked this up yesterday. A Colt New Service 1917. Has been nickeled & Stag or Jigged Bone handles added. I usually stay away from anything that has been nickeled but I liked this one. The grips are what appealed to me. When I removed them to check everything out I found they were backed with paper that appears to be an order form of some sort. I believe this was done around or right after WWII. Because of the writing on the paper. It list Civilian dress, Mackinaw coat & other items.Does anyone recognize this ? Just trying to determine when this refinish took place because I was told it belonged to an Officer around that time.
