This Colt is one of 300 ordered by the Norwegian Army in
early 1916. Colt's first shipment of this order, January 31,
1917, was returned to the factory because of a lacking
"end-duty certificate" that was not issued by the Norwegian
government, and the guns were later sold within the USA. A
second shipment of this order was shipped from the Colt
factory on May 25, 1917. The guns shipped were in the serial
number range C85375 - C98717.
