This is entirely possible.
I know a number of people who work a S&W, and I've been in the plant, and let me tell you, there are parts lying around
everywhere.
I'm pretty sure that all steel framed handguns are being made in the plant in Houlton, Maine now, and I don't know much about what happens up there. But I think it is safe to say that, based on the date code you provided, you have a pistol that was at least finally assembled in early 2010, and I think the letter you get will verify this.
