Huntsman, any insight about the plastic extended grips Colt installed on wartime government contracts and the balance of leftover ones used up on immediate postwar Series1's? Were they Colt's idea, and perchance appeared before the war, or were they ordained by wartime Uncle Sam?

My early postwar 4" has those grips (righteous because I got it from its original owner who assured me it was exactly as it was when he bought it new, as reward to himself for making it home from the Pacific in one piece). They feel really good on the 6" but will leave them on the 4" where they belong.
