Some years ago, I drove a company truck, that had an SBE 23 channel CB. It had a mic that resembled the Turner/Telex RK-56, but it had a metal housing. It may have been a Telex.
It was my favorite handheld, had some wieght to it. Antone ever heard of such a mic? I'd like to find one.

Here is the catalog from 1972: 1972 TURNER Microphone Catalog

I am sure you could figure out the model based on this.
Back in the 70's Conrac corporation owned Turner.
