Congrats on that K-frame NY-1. Very cool.
I have the J-frame version, with a twist.
It's one of the 1,253 Robert Vivas said the NYPD Equipment Bureau didn't sell to an officer so NYPD sent it back to S&W, where it was converted from DAO to SA/DA and sent to a distributor. It fills the 60-2 square in the herd.
Just added a 64-4 NY-1 to go along with the 60-2 NY-1.

Does it have paperwork to show its "checkered" history? With the NY-1 marking, I'd want to be able to prove that the second phase of its life began with a proper trip to the Mothership rather than Bubba's Bar, Grille, and House of Guns or even a legitimate non-factory gunsmith.
Don’t know if it was issued or sent back.
Lonestar those are really sweet revolvers. Just curious, will you shoot them ?
