1917 M1911, looking for more info...

A buddy picked this up, SN in the 153### range makes it 1917 production. Right side of the slide is marked, "Model of 1911. U.S. Army". Grips were replaced (I told him those needed to go!), but I was wondering if there's any other information available. Would contacting Colt give anything other than the delivery date to the government? Thanks!

Colt will give you the ship date and destination. They'll also include assembly date if you ask for it.

 

It is hard to tell much from one dark picture but it appears to be refinished and has had the U.S. PROPERTY stamp removed from the frame so it has no collector value.
