586-7

[PH-2]

I worked a deal on 2 Smiths today, one was a blue 39-2 with honest wear, the other is a 586 dash 7 4" "comped" barrel - looks like a normal L comp configuration.
It's a Performance Center revolver, SN BCH00XX. SCSW says it was born 88-89. It looks like one of the dash 4 GIGN guns without the GIGN crest on the right sideplate and has the matte finish.
While there are no box/docks, the gun is very tight with a faint turn line and has no deplorable IL (THAT woulda been a deal killer!).
Any observations are appreciated as to what I have, here, and I'll try to get a pic up tomorrow.

Thank-You,
Mike

I think you are in the right"Ballpark" for the "Born-On" date, based on the Serial Number--but I also believe that is WAY TOO EARLY a Serial Number for the 586 to be a "Dash Seven". A CONUNDRUM, indeed. Paulie686.
