After 35 years I was able to replace the 624, 3" that I still regret trading off. So my new to me 24-3 3" arrived at my dealer, I'm totally thrilled. I'm confused about what I'm seeing on the internet. The abbreviation on the frame is AEL13XX is this a Lew Horton model ? To many years have passed i don't recall if S & W cataloged this model after the special 7500 Lew Horton run.

Love the 24/624 3" models! Shoot like butter! The way I understand it, there's really no way to tell if it is a LH release without a factory letter or a letter from LH as shown below. Although LH is not in business any longer, I understand letters are still available. Can't find the contact info now, but someone will be along with it. Other than the blue finish, my 24-3 looks exactly the same, but was not distributed by LH.
