looks like a 1.
it's in the usual place where the C # Colt marking usually is.

I looked at the four in my toolbox and found a "2" plus two more with "6" (one of them damn-near sideways) and the fourth with just a faint imprint (possibly a "2" or "7") but I'm guessing they are numbers assigned to Colt subcontractors? Possibly someone who worked for Colt back-in-the-day could shed some light but not sure where else the info could be found. |

No periods, just individual numbers...more gun show finds from the mid-90s (got a bag of 7, two were 601 and sold one of those/kept the other for my project and took the most beat up one to be Cerakoted FDE for my tacticool piston carbine for the something old, something new effect). The inner beauty of Retro is it shows the timelessness of Eugene Stoner's design.
