Is it correct to say that a SN of 305- ××××× is a first year production P89DC?

The P89 serial number range on the Ruger web site is little off. I have a P89 with a 303 prefix and I know there are some even lower. I don't know when the P89 really started shipping. The web site starts in 1993 but the P89 was shipping before 1993.

The first 89s looked almost exactly like the 85s. The decock lever is the easiest to spot.
