Were there any P9S with an II (1988) date code?

Hey all, was reading up on P9S and maybe looking to add one to my collection down the line. In particular, I was looking for an II date code, which would be 1988. From what I've read, production ended in the 70s, though on Wikipedia it says they were made until 1995. I've seen people with early 80s date codes, but I haven't stumbled across an II.

If anyone has any info, or happens to have an II date coded P9S, please post some pics! Thanks

From what I have seen: ;)

P9S (9mm)(1970-1995); II/88 (140 324 through 140 530)
P9S (.45 ACP)(1976-1995); II/88 (407 980)

Thank you! You always have the answers with these date codes and production numbers...Super helpful!

Seems the 88 were quite rare...I've been looking for an II P7, but it seems those are very rare too compared to other years.

My P7M13 is an II code. Serial in the 17-804xx range. Bought it new for $699. It’s a Chantilly. Used it to courier TS/SCI for the Tomahawk program back in the 90’s when I worked at ONI. Still have it; it was my first HK. They’re around. Good hunting! 😉

Yup that is pretty much exactly what I want lol! Amazing piece right there and awesome to see it with its original owner and thebackstory...If you ever plan to get rid of it down the line and need a good caretaker for it, feel free to send me a DM :D But if I were you it'd probably stay with me for life hahaha.
