RK, I will try to squeeze in some research to tell you for absolutely certain but I collect these and I say NO. Maybe George Patton had one but for General Officer issue they were either blue early on or were parkerized. A nickle or chrome plated combat pistol did not make sense to the Military authorities of that era.

Does your friend have an interest in selling this piece? If so, let me know. Thanks, Jerry Burney
