The frame is marked 10-6.
I'm sure it was yet another mis-stamp at the factory as there is no evidence of the barrel being changed. The gun was a bank manager's desk gun. Looked un-fired.

I do know one thing, my wife only paid $350 OTD for the 10-15 she traded and she got a steal on this 5 incher. LGS did it because he knew the newer HB revolver would sell fast where this would sit waiting for someone like my wife.
