Does anyone have information available as to the quantity of the Gart Sport limited run of the model 629-4 Alaskan Back Packer that came out in 1998? It has the magna-ported 3" barrel, non fluted cylinder with full bear on side plate? No tracks on cylinder. The barrel is marked: Alaskan Back Packer. The product code is 103611 with a serial # prefix of RMA. I contacted Smith customer service however they were not able to provide anything . I know there have been several limited runs over the years by exclusive distributors and am curious what the production numbers were for the above model. Thank you for any input.

No idea on your Backpacker, but I think I remember reading that the minimum run on any specials made by S&W was 300 units. Hope you get better info from the next posters.
