Several years ago, my family recieved my grandfather (well, step
grandfather's) pistol, which we believe he was presented with when he got
his first star (~1948-1950).
	
	The gun is a Colt model 1903, hammerless, 380 caliber, stamped 'U.S.
property' with barrel end and some rear slide holster wear, great looking
bore (nice and shiny).  We have one clip for the thing, 7? shots, stamped
.380 ACP on the bottom (I believe the original clip went to someone else
because we ended up with a .32 ACP clip for a while).  We know the owner
was a three star general, although it doesn't have documentation or the
presentation box (it does have a leather belt holster, though).

	What is the pistol worth?  We were debating whether to put
aftermarket sights on it (but if the value is high enough, we'll leave
be).  
	Thanks in advance.  Please send the approximate value to:

Note:  The gun is _NOT_ for sale.
