I don't when it started, or when it stopped, but S&W used to change the first digit of the SKU# to a "6" when it was returned & resold.

I found that out when I bought my 4013 (SKU# 608524, below). This procedure is mentioned in the SCSW also.

Standard new production SKU# is 108524.

And some had a "U" stamped on the trigger guard
