Colt Commando 39 Special: Production Dates & Serial Number Information

Question
colt commando 39 special # 39559

Answer
Steve,

This pistol was only made in 1943 and 1944. The serial number series ended at 50617. If I had to guess, your gun was most likely made in 1944, probably in the first half of the year.

There is no further granularity on the serial numbers other than the year...

Hope this helps you out...
