Check with Ben Sansing.  He is on the newsgroup rec.guns and in RIME
FIREARMS conference.  He knows (or at least pretends to know) a lot
about Argentine .45's. He has an Argentine .45 which is their licensed
copy of the Colt .45. But I don't know which armory it came from.  It's
called a M1927 or something like that.
