I recently helped my dad pick up his fathers 1911. The family story is that it is the gun my grandfather carried in WW2 as a Sargent. The serial number dates to 1915 (115,xxx). Stamped US property on the right hand side of frame. G.H.D marked above the magazine release (this is from my memory, i know it's somewhere on the gun). There are several "P" marks on the pistol. The gun is all blued with some wear, looks like holster wear. Also some markings I can't make out looks like a C with 2 lines through it.
Would a gun made in 1915 have been issued during or around ww2? What is the GHP marking?
