Here is another example. Colt Navy serial number 810, BTW, this old Colt was in the first shipment of 500 pistols to the Navy in 1912..

Note the "DEL" marking on the frame. This was the unit marking for the USS Delaware. In 1937 this Colt was transferred to the US Coast Guard Station on Cape Cod, Mass.... (IT'S GOOD TO BE ON THE WINNING SIDE!)
