I am an owner of the value line pistols.

I am also a big fan and proponent of the 4513TSW handguns.

Having shot both a 457 and a 4513TSW, alongside each other, I can tell you definitively that there is no difference in reliability or accuracy, in my hands, between the two models. They are both superb.

There are some construction, asthetic, material and finish differences and the 4513TSW is a "nicer" pistol, IMO. But I am completely satisfied and quite happy with my new to me 457.

My 910 pistol went 19,000 rounds before I cracked a frame rail. It still functions safely. I just don't shoot it as much. I more than got my money out of it. Fine handgun.

I would buy and carry a value line, or "American Pride" pistol as the value line was later named, before I'd buy or carry any of those plastic guns they are peddaling today. Regards 18DAI
