Does anyone here have any information on restoring the army logo & number on the butt of a 1917 Colt? I have a 1917 ser# 275XXX that indicates a late manufacture, I believe it was sold as surplus & never issued. Finish is 95 to 98 percent. Did the Army grind the #s off the butt or some scoundrel in the far past? (Yes there are grinder marks & the lanyard ring sits on a 1/16" high little square) The U.S. Property is still under the barrel. Any info on this will be greatly appreciated. Scott in SC
