You are correct BM1, there were just over 1500 of the PCS 1st generation Shorty 40, I simply stated that mine was one of the first 500. The initial numbers were for 500 when they were first released, however they sold so well the extended the run of the first generation. There were some minor changes within the first generation, I seem to remember that the barrel bushing was different on the later pistols. You will also notice that they also transitioned to the blued hammer and trigger on the later guns.
The 2nd generation pistols are the rare ones, there was someone here a while back that had serial number SPC021x if memory serves. Again there were only minor changes between the 1st and 2nd generations.
I think the 3rd generation pistols were the ones with the higher production numbers, but no one has ever been able to tell me how many. These were release in blue and stainless steele.
Cheers,
Sam
