Well, it took an act of congress to become a member of this forum but I'm glad to be one.

I am 70 years, married to the same woman for 51 years and been a collector of Winchester and Marlin rifles with a few handguns mixed in for about 50 years. Born and bread in Texas. Now retired and enjoying what the good lord has given me.

I purchased my first Smith & Wesson last Monday, a 4506-1. I never realized how good a gun the 4506 is until I got this one.

I am going to write up a thread in the Semiautomatic section with a picture and the story behind the history of this gun.

Thanks for allowing me to be a part of this fine forum. I look forward to learning more about Smith & Wesson and their weapons.

Welcome from a fellow Texan djh. Great forum, have fun, learn lots, share what you know.

I carried a 4506 as my duty weapon for several years and love that pistol. Those outside the shooting world look at me a little weird when I tell them that gun was part of me. I never felt undergunned with that pistol at my side.
