The thing is that I only had one, a 36-1, in Nickel 2 months ago and now I have 4!
THEN, a buddy called me and said he was looking to buy a 3 gun lot off of an estate sale and asked me if I wanted a mint 459, w/ box and all, that was part of the buy.
Yep you guessed it...Nickel! ![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://smith-wessonforum.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif) Updates to follow....

Rags,
Not sure what impresses me most. Your 15 with original box and all or your photo skills.
Both impress me.
Add another to the long list of S&W's.

Rags,
Yup, I had to buy the nickel one to keep from putting holster wear on the blue one.

Oh yes. The Barrel Xchange heavy bolt (tungsten inserts) slows the ROF down to 780 RPM.

That has got to be one of the best photos of a Nickel gun I have ever seen. I feel like I should be paying a fee to look at it! AWESOME work and a beautiful gun!!

Grab that nickel. Nickel guns look better with dark wood grips. Most of them come with darker wood grips.
