Series 70 Lightweight Commander - "CLW" prefix, .30 Luger (7.65mm), .38 Super, 9mm, .45 ACP, 1970-1983 Nearly all of the info you find on the CLW will say they began production in 1970, however, I checked with Colt directly on my CLW with a very low serial # and they stated that it was produced in late 1969.
