Just purchased a neat shot glass with a PC 945, the PC logo, and the year 2000. Found it on ebay while searching for mags and made an offer.
I'm looking for any info on it, and have found nothing about it online. Were these sold by S&W?? or some other distributor?? I don't see S&W offering a shot glass with the purchase of a firearm.
Any info would be much appreciated.

I can not offer you any information, but just wanted to stop by and say that this was an awesome find! I really like it. Enjoy a shot of some good whiskey with your new shot glass!

I have shot glasses and mugs from various years.

Every year there used to be a catalog of clothing, gift-ware, jewelry and other S&W logo items. Some of it was items licensed by S&W (not manufactured by S&W) like the flashlights and knives

I remember the catalogs...used to get one each year, I guess the internet , PC's and smart phones made them obsolete.
I still like catalogs though .

I just got home and snapped a couple of quick photos of the shot glasses that were available in 2002 for Smith & Wesson's Sesquicentennial

They were offered in clear or frosted. I have some of each sitting on my ar

While there are no longer any printed catalogs, this kind of merchandise is still offered on the Factory's website :

MERCHANDISE

GIFTS - MERCHANDISE

TACTICAL LIGHTS - FLASHLIGHTS

I guess if your going to have a shot from a S&W 945 it's better to have it from the glass then the gun.

Seeing as I have three 945's , I'd like one of these . If anyone has one for sale , let me know . Thanks

bump....

Been looking for others since posting this thread..found this frosted mug on a popular auction site. Never heard of a 629 "CLDX"... DX, yes, but not that.
I thought it would be about the size of a shot glass, but it must be a double shot. It stands 2 3/4" tall, 2 1/4" wide at base, and no damage whatsoever.

I have several of the shot glasses, beer mugs, coffee cups etc. They were all purchased by my children at the old retail store/range that S&W operated in Springfield. They were then given to me as gifts on my birthday, Christmas, father's day etc. Even when they were younger, they knew what I liked (with some help from their mother)!
