Default Model 28 with odd stamping

My son has acquired a Model 28 that is nickel finish and in great condition. This was once the duty gun of a Captain in the Florida Marine Patrol back in the 60-70's. The serial number is S2324XX, but right in front of the serial number is the stamping FCP- 11. I know there were some special order nickel guns made for the Florida Highway Patrol, but they were 5" and marked FHP. This gun is a 4". The Florida Marine Patrol was a sister agency to FHP, so I wonder if they had any special order guns made.

The Odd thing is its stamped FCP-11 and not FMP-11. The serial number is set back towards the rear of the grip frame, with the FCP-11 in front of it, so I'm thinking it was made that way. Sorry I don't have a picture to share.


Any info would be appreciated.
