Colt Cobra Serial # Query
Folks:
Got a Colt Cobra with the following serial number:
688XX
B
LW
Now I know that LW means light weight and that suffix stopped after 1969. The capital B has me scratching my head.
Anyone out there have an inkling as to what it means and when the gun was manufactured?
The barrel is clearly marked Cobra. A 2 incher.

- I'm thinking assembly mark, not part of serial. -
