"There are many sources available for it's history, John Kopec is one contact."
jbmi,
I talked to Kopec shortly after getting the gun. He was interested in it, but declined to examine it because it is not a military Colt, which is his specialty. He was the one who suggested that I call Graham.
You are correct that Colt letters are only $100 (and take about 3 months to get); I had the $150 in my head because for the extra $50 they will give you the info over the phone with the followup letter arriving about two weeks later, and that's the way I do it.
