An intriguing discovery realised today.............

Sorry, but I wasn't bidding on the Diamond. I also held off in bidding on a Colt 1911 in .38 Super, made in 1929.
It would have been interesting to know whether it originally went to the FBI, other Police force, or to mobsters.

Lot 4157? If there's something you'd like me to check o it, let me know as it will be with me for a little bit (still waiting for the transfer for now) before leaving for Europe
 
Thanks Kotkoto, but the best way to research it further was to pay for a Colt Research certificate on the pistol, to see where it was originally sold to.
No time to do that before the sale.

I've already been told that had I purchased it, the wait time for deactivation would be three months, by a person who is a welder. And gawd knows
what the pistol would look like after it was Trudeau-ised.

I've owned two Inglis Diamonds in the past.......in years gone by. They sold, and that, is that.
