hey who know ,maybe it was even a reject?? thrown away or taken home after work??? I knew a guy years ago got his start going through the trash bins and barrels at S&W many years ago......when S&W was here in Rock Creek ,Oh., we were able to get "rejected" ammo and we used it for test firing repairs ,they just could NOT sell it "as is", same went for their target grips had bins of them mismatched, discarded no finish on them and my friend Fred W ( rest his soul) and I had redone many of them and were good to go after staining to match...ones mans junk IS another mans gold.......
