Recently came across a different 6" barrel 586-5 with s/n CDP89XX. It has what appears to be a higher polish blue and all of the markings are gold laser engraved. It has the MIM parts but no lock. I called S&W and they told it me it was manufactured in Sept, 1999, as product code 148789. I can't find a reference anywhere to this catalog number. Nothing in the Standard Catalog and nothing when I google it. Unfortunately, it didn't have its box so there is no info I can get from an end label...
Does anyone have any information that they could share on it? I know that there is one other post on here about that catalog number from 2016, and its serial number is within 20 digits of mine, but there wasn't a lot of info on that post either so I'm hoping more has been learned about this one since then?
Thanks in advance.
