I was digging around in my gun area this morning and found the box my S&W Model-17-4 came in. I got it used in Oct; 2003. It has a 6" barrel and it's blued. Serial # 89K91XX. The original paper work was missing.
There are white stickers/labels on each end of the box. One is too faded to read but the other is missis in the right end but the other is readable. The are two blocks on the sticker under "Special Features." One says "9K9" and the other says "174" in handwritten ink.
My question is, what does the Special Features codes mean? Do I have a collectors item or just a very nice shooter?
P.S. The receit was in the box from when I purchased it.I paid $130.00 plus tax. It was in like new condition.
