S&W 4006TSW California Highway Patrol (CHP) Information

[Fastbolt]

I saw in some earlier posts that a few retired CHiPs were in the thread. So I'm wondering if any of you might have known a Sgt. Wayne Mulholland, spent most of his time in LA and Fresno area.

He retired probably 20 years ago (so I doubt anyone would have known him) but he was my friend and he recently passed and I miss him, so I just thought I'd ask.

He never carried a 4006 as he began in wheel guns and stayed with them. But I just got a 4006TSW CHP in his memory.

I just began editing some of his stories...wow!

I knew a Mulholland in the 80's, who did get promoted to sgt and transferred down south, although I'd forgotten his first name. How many Mulhollands who were promoted to sgt could there be in the CHP?

Since I sent you the PM I got to thinking about it, and I remembered the name of the longtime Nights partner of the Mulholland I knew, when he worked a field office in NorCA, Steve Muders. Muders was also promoted to sgt, and I eventually lost touch with both of them. Looking online, I found that Steve Muders passed in 2018.

Yep, those were the revolver days of the CHP. (At my agency, too, comes to that.)

Your welcome, FYI, my co workers and I spent 2 weeks at the factory advising/ designing the TSW. My idea was the decocker safety spring and plunger you see in the picture.My co workers call it the " Adrian plunger ". Kinda funny

Thanks to your team for making a great fun

I got mine used and brought it back to Cali where it belongs

I told you these guns would appreciate when the supply dries up...

Obviously this was a erroneous bid, after it was retracted the pistol sold for $560.

What happened to the original non-TSW CHP 4006s? I've seen one go up for sale locally which I regret not grabbing but they don't seem anywhere near as prevalent on the surplus market as the TSWs are.

That bid was due to shenanigans of one of Copper Customs (the seller) owners.

I think every auction they had was bid up to $10 million.
