I was just going to mention that too... the success of that gun is what prompted S&W to decide to produce a production line version, the 645, followed by the SA 745. So the DNA of the famous "Supergun" lives on in them.

Also... I believe the early production 645 slides were furnished by Novak's until/while S&W worked to get their own tooling to produce them online.
