Just saying.

I have seen a couple of others from that list through the years and this is the only red ramped one, so far. Haven't seen them all.

EDIT:

I dug into some previous dialogue on this Forum. Allen-Frame posted images of his nickeled Model 17-3.
Here is a quote from him,
"These illustrate some of the features of this gun such as
the serial number stamped on the barrel flat and on the cylinder under
the extractor star.
The pinned front sight ramp and big lazy ampersand in the 4 line address".

His is as mine is. I still own mine. He has long since sold his away. I followed it for a while and do not know where it wound up.
Two were at GB auction a couple of years ago.
