What kind of information? The only thing you normally get from Colt is a single sheet of paper saying where the gun was shipped and when, with a description of the gun as it left the factory.

I have no way of knowing the gun's history, but it has been treated very badly. It looks like it was rusted, then the rust ground/polished off and the gun plated, probably with chrome, not nickel. Unless someone can prove it has historical connections of some kind, it has relatively little value. If the grips really are ivory, they would probably be worth more than the rest of the gun.
