Colt 1913 1911

[Vernon Morris]

I have two 1913 1911. Both barrels are marked PH in Vertical position (in line with the bore of the barrel) what I have read they should be is that are vertical. The sn. of 1913 are in 26xxx and 59XXX. The 26xxx has the round sights, the 59xxx has the almost square sights. Any information on what I have would be greatly appreciated.
