Congrats! The 457D is a scarce bird. No info on numbers made, but you can bet there were not too many.

IIRC they were made in the mid 90s. Two orders. A handful of the early ones had second strike capability. The rest did not.

I have seen four different examples. All of them had VJB serial prefix. They also had metal mag catches, unlike some of the early 457s which had nylon catches.

The 457 is a very underated and under appreciated 45 carry gun. Enjoy your new pistol! Regards 18DAI
