Yes, there have been some low numbers ,but few according to Chad in the RENE,
which is the "Red Eagle News Exchange, Perry ,Iowa,they tried to be a more finished gun when introduced in 1959 but they had issues with the polishing, so Chad claims they got it "better" and some of the early guns may have been redone, polished ,shipped around 1965......?? per the 'RENE', noted above.....
the factory would have liked the Supers to be just that "Super", and a finish to compare to the S&Ws "Presentation" guns,,,this may have been the "thought"?? idea ?? who knows for certain,,one must be careful, as to ME, the "high" polish can mean it was redone, reblued, refinished at some time later on,,,,many of the "cased" SUpers got their finish "freckled",spotted" from laying on the felt in their mahogany case, so "caveat emptor" baby......... 8) :roll: :wink:
I'll never forget many years ago, serial number #31 Super was offered to me at Tulsa, , they all said "you can and know how to" refinish it, but I passed, and our friend the late Carl Laco did buy it.....wish I had that gun today.....
"and so it goes...."
