With the low production of alloy-cylinder, square butt J-frame Airweights, it would seem likely that a grease pencil notation would have been used on a round butt label, but I am wondering if anyone there in the center of the Smith & Wesson Universe has an original example - or a real printed square butt "Aluminum" end label. Anybody?
The k frame box is 3 years newer than than the red boxes. I would think there method of relabeling wouldn't change in that short time span. The type of box is irrelevant.
But if anyone knows it would be Jim Fisher who just posted the display of every variation of the early chief specials.
