  The difference in the (2) versions of the Constable "I Believe" is the location of the safety.
  
  The early version which dates to the 60's, is also known as the Model 5000, the manual safety is located on the slide.
  
  The later version which dates from the 80's, is also known as the "A-60", the safety is on the frame.
  
  I'm wrong on the above, the A-60 has a ambidextrous safety on the slide NOT on the frame.
