Default Date on Model 66-2 ?

Just picked up one of these. The SN is AUJ85XX. The grips seem to bear a date of May 1986. Does this date jive with the production date of the revolver ? Thoughts would be most appreciated.

The AUJ prefix was in common use on new guns in.....
June - August 1986.
The stocks from May are dated perfectly to be the originals. Typically, that date on the stocks will predate the gun's ship date by a few weeks to a couple of months.
