Description:
Up for sale unissued, collector condition WWII, 1942, Colt Commando with a 2-inch barrel.
Colt Commando was serial numbered from No. 1 to No. 50,280, accounting for the full run of more than 50,000 produced during World War II. Of that 50,000, the U.S. Army Ordnance Department received the first 36,000 between March, 1943, and June, 1944. So, if a Commando falls below the serial number of 36,000 it should have U.S. military markings on it such as an Ordnance bomb cartouche on the upper left side of the frame. Almost from the receipt of the first prototypes in 1942, Colt began to produce a 2-inch-barreled model that some call “The Junior Commando". The Ordnance Department began receiving the first shipments of the 2-inch model around the same time that the first shipments of the standard 4-inch model were arriving in March, 1943. It is believed only 3,450 of the 2-inch “Junior Commandos” were manufactured and used during the war.
