![]() Your contributions to this effort will be appreciated by anyone who appreciates Colt Thompsons. Any new serial numbers that are added in other posts will be summarized here, similar to how Gordon listed such information in his books. This post will change over time, and I'll leave it open, in case anyone wants to add to it. I don't have Gordon's latest book yet, and I'm away from my 4th edition of his book at the moment, but I'm pretty sure that the recent discovery of # 11410 in Germany was not documented by Gordon, so it will be the first entry below. Many were consumed over the almost 100 years since their manufacture, but the iconic firearm has an uncanny way of surviving, and resurfacing around the world for us to wonder about and discuss. There are thousands more Colt Thompsons that remain to be documented. This post will become a repository for information on Colt Thompson serial numbers that were not featured in Gordon's books, because he left us too soon. I'm starting this as a pinned post in memory of Gordon Herigstad, the author of Colt Thompson Serial Numbers, who passed away on 4/23/15. The shooter to his left is Warren Kreiser.
