Hello, I just received a 19-4 from GB, sn# 41K9xxx with a 6" barrel. It has honest working wear on the muzzle, cylinder, distinct drag mark on the cylinder, but no dings, rust, or abuse. If someone would please provide the born on date, I would be much obliged. One other question, when did...

There was a thread about that some tim ago, but I can't remember if it was in the middle of a 4506 or 645 thread.

It is a very nice gun. You could always replace the safety with a 3rd gen one.

I have had two 4506-1's, a 4563TSW, and a 745 (a single action only version of the 645). I have grown to like the handling of my 745 better. The 645 points and balances a little better, the grips look better imho, the backstrap has more aggressive checkering. The 645 safety is UGLY, but can...

I like the factory curved. The aftermarket grips always seem to make them too chunky.

I have had two of them and swapped them out for different backup/off duty guns. Both of them were 100% reliable and very simple. I also liked the magazines because they would not accidentally pop out. They had a lot of recoil... my hand would ache after shooting a box of ammo, and the lack of...

Depends on how many unfired 1076's with the box and accessories you see.

Fantastic thread. IMHO, this goes one of two ways; either you onw a couple of guns, or you own a bunch. If you are of the first persuasion, then sticking to one is probably the best bet. If you are of the second, then you may be better with a particular, but otherwise it doesn't matter as...

Sure, but it it was designed as a refined SA 645 for gaming. Regardless it does not even measure up to my stock 4506-1.

No I do not handload, and since none of them are my duty pistol I do not shoot them as much as I would like to. It may be that the 745 prefers a handload, but I do not understand why the more refined pistol cannot keep up with a plain 4506-1 or the 4563TSW.

It does have an overtravel stop. I am not perceiving any catching, but I might re-adjust it to see if that helps. Even though I not the original owner, there is a warranty card in the box. Maybe it is time to send it back to the factory.

I have had my 745 for a few years now. It is pretty much a safe queen... (I have 2 other S&W 45's). Of my 3 (a late model 4506-1, and a 4563TSW) it is by far the least accurate with whatever I shoot. The barrel crown in fine, I have replaced the main spring, the trigger is dandy, it does...

I'll second anything in 12ga, preferably with rifle sights.

I think there is an example on display at the SEAL/UDT museum in Florida.

The G18 is fairly difficult to control, so as a LEO weapon it has a very limited role. The public really has a problem with missed shots hitting their loved ones, houses, etc and there is an outcry every time someone has a bunch of bullet holes in them too. As a result I don't think there is...

I am pretty sure that a mount was made that replaced the grips...I'd like to say Aimtech and I think I saw it on Midway's website.

The 45xx series pistols are among the most underated pistols of all time. The only complaints you will hear is that they are too heavy. I have never heard about any frame cracking on the 45xx, but they are mechanical things. Even sigs (gasp) have well documented issues with frame...
