Is that what you mean?
If the slide was from the original series, it would be roll marked instead of laser etched. That puts it from the later 90's. In 1999, the TSW series came out, which has different slide/frame rails than yours. That tells me your parts were most likely made in the late '90s, and your pistol was just recently assembled, marked and shipped.
