Default 39-2 German proofs

I have a 39-2 A702752 Shipped Aug. 1981 Mr. Jinks stated it may have been sent to a German Distributor, Auberzcht Kind.
Is it a S&W that is uncommonly encountered or just another
39-2? Could it have been sold thru a local PX? Mike 2796

I believe Wischo was the German distributor for S&W. Yes, it could have been sold at a PX. Lots of guns were bought that way.

I believe the name is Albrecht Kind, or something close to that.
