The 2nd Gens are a bargain in that they are a great pistol that's been over shadowed by the 3rd gens when the two have more in common internally that what most realize, many parts will interchange.

While they feel a bit "blocky" without the slimming refinements the 3rd gens received with the one piece wrap around grips, they are as solid of a gun as the 3rd gens. I have a 459 and a 559 and both have been trouble free and as reliable as the sunrise.
