Hate to revive an old thread, but I am trying to obtain a 4006TSW SKU 150149 for use as a duty gun if anyone knows of a source.

Would it be possible for a dealer here or at Sig Forum to contact S&W and get a "group buy" of these together?

Forum member StVitus put together a group buy just this past May for the Law Enforcement Only versions with the rail built in as one piece, integral to the frame, of the 4566TSW & 4006TSW's.

I did not have the funds then, otherwise I would have jumped on one of the 4006TSW's, I just sent him an email saying there interest on this thread for another group buy.

I found that thread, thanks. Do you know if the people who contributed to that order all got their orders ok?

I asked S&W if they could make these for my PD and they said, "Not right now." I guess they were too busy making internal locks and plastic guns.

That all depends on how many your department will buy and who you talk to. Did you talk to Ernie Langdon or one of the guys doing government sales, or did you just talk to customer service? One dealer on this forum places an order for ten or twenty every so often and they run them with contract builds and gets them no problem.

Palmetto,

The SKU for the CHP 4006 is 150149. That includes the bobbed hammer, decocker only, integral rail, no trigger return spring, and 3 mags.

What gives???

I do not think he meant to say trigger return spring. The return spring sends the trigger back forward after pulling to the rear and firing. I think he meant the little copper colored leaf spring that is on the front of the trigger, which may have a different name - I think.

The drawbar plunger spring tensions the drawbar rearward (and the drawbar tail upward).

The trigger play spring ... which is indeed the little copper colored leaf spring riveted to the top of the drawbar head ... tensions the trigger in a manner which removes excess trigger play when the hammer is in the cocked, single action position.

The CHP started removing the trigger play springs from their 4006's some years ago. Doesn't surprise me that they'd order new ones without them.

Yeah, play spring..that's what I meant in that initial reply of mine.

WE have talked to S&W about A run of 4506-3. They would do it,but had to be for 100.

What is a 4506-3? I mean, I know what a 4506 is and a 4506-1, but I am not up to date on the changes, so I do not know what a -2 or -3 is.

4506 R3 has A wider hood, laser engraved, marked 4506. But on box marked 4506 R3. They were never offered to the public. Special order L.E. sales.

I have contacted S&W, THEY WILL DO A RUN OF THE CHP 4006 FOR US. WE MUST BUY 250

Any idea on price? (Ohhhhhhh, I don't know, I can't afford 250 of 'em)

I haven't heard any follow-up info in the last 3 months.

They may be issuing Streamlight M6's negating the need for night sights.

The M6 is not a substitute for night sights. They give your position away, and make you an easy target! Not to mention the very limited holster selection.

I'm pretty sure the M6 is no longer standard anyway. A really sweet set-up is the CHP 4006 with the Safariland 6280 holster and the TLR-1 weaponlight.

I don't think the CHP carries a light on their pistol on duty though, but I'm not positive.. Does the agency have its own special unit that might use the light?
