OK...everybody missed this one!!

At first glance this looks like the batch of 1,000 or so guns produced for the TALO group of distributors...but the gun in the GB auction is much different!!!
The first 1,000 guns had 520- prefixes and an internal lock.
The gun in this GB auction has a 521- prefix and presumably, no internal lock - meaning it was evidently made way after the initial batch.
So what gives, and how many late production guns were made?
Evidently not many because I've not heard a peep from the RF crowd on new stainless .44 Specials.
