I will be setting up a display at the Ohio Gun Collectors Association in May of my model 845. I have all three the first model , model of 1998 and a Target Champion. What I need is copies of the product sheet that Smith & Wesson put out as a selling tool. You can look at my past threads to see pictures. Thanks for any and all help.

Wish I could help! I know I have seen a copy of the flyer that Lew Horton put out but if I recall, it wasn't a handsome "display" type of thing, so I hope there is something better than that.

I saw your display the last time you had it at OGCA and I totally loved every single bit of it. You can bet I will not miss it in May.

A fantastic gun show JUST got better!

Sorry, but this is the best that I have seen and while it is neat information, I don't think it makes for a fantastic "display." BLUEDOT37 was nice enough to attach this to post#43 in this thread:

Found a 845 (45 Limited) and....

If there was a pre-production "stocking dealer" glossy product sheet, that's probably what you seek. I definitely do NOT have the inside track on that but I can tell you this... there are sellers on Gunbroker that offer these sheets and full binders, often at prices that seem a bit optimistic (but not for me to judge) but my point is that I have seen them for a number of Performance Center guns... I have never seen one offered for the 845 Limited.

Lew Horton has always made extremely quick e-mail replies when contacted about the origin and ship dates of Lew Horton exclusive guns, it would be a fine idea to send off an e-mail to Earl Minot and see if he has access to anything that helps your display.

Sent you a pm with a copy of the only flyer I've seen on the original .45 Limited..

Of course the Target Champion was a Wischo exclusive from what I remember, so they might have done some catalogs/flyers over there, just have not seen any.

This blue colored .45 Limited flyer was done by Lew Horton, hope the scan can work for you, if not let me know I might be able to get a good xerox onto light blue paper (as the original) if needed
