I have a 1943 Colt no. 848611. The inspector stamp on mine is a W.B. in a box. Hope this helps. Nice looking 1943, looks close to mine.

Mikecp,
Thanks for the info.. When my dealer retired, he had this one in the basement. Also had a LNIB Manurhin. Cost me $2500.00 for both and I don't regret it for a minute.
