Does anyone know when these were made?
Are the grips original? or an after market upgrade.

I paid $500 for this and it included a really nice Galco holster and a 50 round box of bullets. How did I do? (I was told that it was only fired about 20 times)

I like the gun a lot and that is why I would like to know a bit more about it.

Thank you very much your replies are greatly appreciated.
