You probably need to call WR. Their website shows 2019-2029. You could try the store in FL, but I don’t know if they have any access to the record books.

This is an Explora post showing serial number ranges for different types of WR guns..

Is there a “T” prefix before the serial number?

I have not physically seen gun. It is advertised for sale and the serial number is listed in description. The gun has 2.75 inch chambers and advertised as original barrels.
