Marvin,

The slides of the Colts that I mentioned are serial numbered under the firing pin stop plate. Colt began numbering the slides of their Commercial Government Model in the 1920 time frame and discontinued this after WWII. Some of the Colt National Match .45's made in the 1960's had the slide numbered to the frame under the sight, as these pistols were hand fitted for minimum tolerance.
