    What a great inheritance!
    The story is actually priceless. My Great Grandfather was a deputy sheriff in a small town in New Mexico. I have a picture of him in a bar with the same gun on the table in front of him. He and another guy are playing poker with silver dollars. I have his badge, two original bullets from that era, the picture and the gun.

    You will decide for those that passed it along to you that which is best.

    I sent Colt the application request for the Archive Letter. Estimating 120 days. Thanks TGT for all the comments and advice. I plan to leave the gun in the condition I received it

    The Tyler family does excellent work and I was lucky enough for them to accept the the firearm I needed work on. Their work is in extremely high demand..
