New Detonics Service Master

A friend of mine referred me to this board today.

I am a long-time Detonics fan, and previously owned a New Detonics Score Master, which I let get away.
I currently own a New Detonics Service Master, ser. #2SV083. I bought the gun new, but I can't remember the year. The gun is a shorter (commander) size version of the Score Master, and came from the factory with NP3 finish. As some of you may know, Robby Barkman ran Robar and New Detonics at the same time, so some of the guns got factory finished.
I have carried this gun on and off for ten years here in Florida, and it is the one pistol that stays in my battery. I have bought and sold about 70 guns in the last ten years, many I wish I hadn't gotten rid of (like my Score Master). This one has always stuck around.
I like the thumb safety so much on my Detonics, that when I sent my Para P-13 to Novak's to be customized, it went straight to Robar afterwords to have the same safety fitted, and the NP3 plating done.
I go to shows alot, and every once in a while I see a Combat Master, or even more rarely, a Score Master, but I have never seen another Service Master in ten years. I would like to know if anybody on this board knows what the production numbers were on the Series II Service Masters. I would also be curious to know if you guys have run into this particular model at the shows you have been to.
These great pistols were revolutionary 10-15 years ago, and I still think they have the same mystique today.
