Some twenty years later a mystery may be solved. A friend had an old 1911 gov with no ser# . I didn't know anything about them at the time. he no longer has it but it may have been used for parts and the lower thrown away. It sounds like it may have been a GI bring back and scrubbed. My friend speculated it was a proto type and did not have a ser# or it was used by a secret gov agency(pick one) but I'm sure he was just trying to justify keeping it. He did inherit it so nothing lost i guess.
