Picked up a Springfield compact today. Pics later. NMC prefix on the low 5 digit serial number. When were these made?

I'm envious..Mine was stolen a few months ago and it was the perfect carry gun..SA action, alloy frame with night sights...very light weight, accurate and reliable....Enjoy yours and never leave it unsecured.

I got mine in the early 90s. Ss and NM s/n as well.
It will be the last to go as it is willed to my good buddy "toothless in the desert" from Palm Desert!

PICS!

Weird kind of ,sti adjustable sight on a compact. That and the beaver tail. Thought it was an Ed Brown but comparing to my others I don't think its Ed Brown now.

Called Springfield armory, January 92.

OH-MAN that pistol is awesome! Enjoy it and listen to them guys about hanging on to it. Would look like Darth Vader's CC with dawson or 10-8 rear sight pkg. SWEEEET!

I sent my compact to SA for trigger undercut and it came back with the idiot scratch buffed out(my first 1911)and a flat msh. Of course, the msh had the lawyer lock!
I may switch it back.
