Tom, by the time the Colt came up for bids, I was in serious trouble, so had to let it go. It was my first chance in years to actually buy a high condition, high grade Colt. I know Colt letters are expensive, but you might try to document this gun. Colt historians are pretty good at ferreting out information. A friend invested in a letter on a graded Colt 1883 and ended up with information that the gun was built for a Colt attorney, a gift from the company.
