OK Guys, got this Colt M1917 for inspection today & let me tell you this gun does not look as good as it does in the photo but I am more than happy with it as it shows honest wear & locks up tighter then a bank vault The grips are real ivory Now I need some help. The number on the grip frame is 15459 & the number on the frame & crane are 164651 with what looks like a H above that number & a h below it (on the frame that is) then above the cylinder latch it looks like a HS3 ? in a circle. On the backstrap to me it looks like something was sanded off or is that just the finish, rough ? I must say I am very happy with this gun & I'll be keeping it. Now just have to find me a reproduction web belt M1917 holster a a half moon clip pouch which is not easy here in Australia. Now the hunt for a S&W M1917 Here are some more pictures for you let me know what you Guys think.
