It used to be easy Colt military had NO. then number digits only Civilian Models had C then number digits . Then the series 70 and commsnders and nickle finsh came about so serial had combo of different Number digits and letters , all got too confusing to keep up with even books stopped in the 1980's. Call colt.

My new Blue Book Pocket Guide indicates this would (probably) be a, 1998 or newer, Series 80 Government Model Enhanced. First number shown for 1998, FR21731E
