Hi All,

I recently bought this 103 year old Colt #23635, incomplete and with finish removed (none too gently) by a previous owner. I'm hoping aficionados here can discern what is original to the gun. My plan is to have it refinished once I can verify all parts are original and if not, what needs replacing. The barrel is marked "P", "H" on top and either "6" or "G" underneath. Could not find any other markings on the mag or small parts. My FFL dealer thinks (at least) the trigger and hammer are original. Rifling looks good, but the muzzle seems to swallow a bullet...

Are the grip screws specific to a year range or are they all the same?

Thanks!
