1924 Argentine Navy Contract Colt Government Model

[jmoore]

The Argentine Navy was an early adopter of the new style Government Model patterned after the US M1911a1. They ordered 150 in 1924, of which 75 were delivered in 1924 and the rest in '25. Not much mystery in determining where in the lot that a specific example falls, as they were marked with sequential issue numbers. (This one is #30.) However the markings are rather different than the earlier Army contract shown in this thread:
