The distributor Lew Horton had 7,000 made on a special order. Yours would of shipped in......
July or August of 1985.
It would of had wood finger groove grips, as others have shown. S&W called these grips "Combat Stocks". Any grip made to fit a
round-butt N-frame would fit.
Lew Horton is still around as a company. If you call them they will authenticate your gun, then send you a nice letter on their fancy letterhead documenting it with some interesting facts. It's a nice thing to have, and they provide it for free.
The product code was 103580, a number unique to that specific model and variation.....

These 103580's normally trade hands in the $650 to $900 range, though I've seen them go for more and less. You got an excellent deal
