My father was a police officer for 26 yrs. He bought a S&W Model 59 when they first came out in the early 70's and carried it for duty. He taught me how to shoot on that gun. He was lucky; it fed everything from 115/124 gr hollowpoints/FMJs to his duty load of 90 gr Super Vel hollowpoints...

OK Heekma, tell us where you got this gem. Local gun store or online? BTW, 18DAI, thanks for the great info!

You are welcome. My father was a police officer for 26yrs and carried a S&W Model 59 for about 20 of those years. I grew up shooting it. Stay safe and watch your back! Greg

Thank you Mack! Greg

Hi I currently have both a S&W 4566 and a 5906 that I really enjoy shooting. I have been looking for a 4513 or 4516 to compliment them. My question is this: can the hammer on the 4513/4516 be replaced with one from the 4566 (or 4563/4506)? I have read on the forum here that it can be done with...

deanodog: Beautiful collection!

Boy, if we on this Forum could only "tell" S&W to bring back their 3rd Generation autoloaders in their "Classic" line we would all be in heaven!

Thank you for letting me know!

Squidsix: New member here. If you don't mind me asking, did you start with a 4516-1, buy a 4566 slide and mate them together? Or how did you do that? It sounds like a great "conversion."
