This spoon's for tradin

I just acquired a mid to late 80s Springfield 1911-A1.

I know very little about Springfields and the internet sources I checked seem very ambiguous.

Back in 1989 the weapon was customized by Tussey Custom to the tune of over $1000 jet only has had 600 or so rounds put through it.
They did a trigger job (3lb), Barsto barrel, Bomar sights, SAA magwell (arched), checked front strap & trigger guard, Commander hammer and a Svenson ambidextrous safety.

It throws a lump of hot lead down range almost as well as my Svenson Gold Cup.

My questions are: What does the NM prefix on the serial number really mean ? Any information on Tussey?
