Lazy c/N on left side, no stamps on right side.

The following is copied from the Commercial Database Commentary V5, by Dwight Gruber.

"As noted previously, New Model commercial production gave way completely to commercial production of the P-08. By the end of the sn 69000 serial range most of the guns reported show evidence of diversion to military delivery. These are the P08 Commercial Army variation, having 5-digit commercial serial numbers, but without the commercial lazy c/N proofs. These guns are all c/X, c/X, c/X army inspector stamped and army power proofed."
