OLD COLT: WE PROVIDE THE PUBLIC WITH AN ONLINE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE FOR OLD COLT GUNS.
This Colt Government Model was shipped to the Fries, Beall & Sharp Company at 734-736 10th, Street NW in Washington, D.C on March 12th, 1947. It was part of a 10 gun shipment.
What's interesting is that the serial number and manufacturing characteristics of this Colt would place it at an approximate 1935 year of manufacture. Yet it shipped and has some updated finish characteristics of a post-war example.
