I fired off an email to the Redstone Arsenal asking about the three M1911A1 I have the serial number for, my issue gun, my CMP gun and Marv's CMP gun.
I got a reply today, letting me know I'm in line to get an answer.
Sir or Ma'am,
LDAC has received your FOIA request for three M1911A1 Caliber .45 Pistols serial numbers (my issue gun), (my CMP gun), and (Marv's CMP gun).
Please allow up to 3 weeks to receive your response.
You are now # 63 in the queue.
The DoD Small Arms/Light Weapons Registry history only goes back to 1975 when the Registry was started.
We're a little disappointed it won't go back far enough to tell if our pistols served in combat.
I am eager to know where my old gun ended up. Prolly disassembled for parts, she was in rough shape when I turned her in.
