A letter from Colt is the only way to know for sure if the pistol was sent to the OSS and that does not always confirm where it went. For example, there are S&W Victory Model revolvers that were shipped to the U.S. Navy in Rosslyn, VA, some of which are believed to have been for the OSS.

What's the serial number of the pistol in question?
What is the difference in value between OSS guns and guns shipped for commanding officer ?
