    I like to hang out with my old friends

    Thanks for the information. I am looking around for a couple of 2nd Generation models, namely the 645 and 439, or possibly a 39-2 and I do not care for the retaining screw on the 2nd Generation ambi-safety. This may be an answer for me.

    S&W 915 Thoughts

    Good solid guns, no frills. They were considered a less expensive version of the 59xx pistols similar to the later 910/410 models. However the 915/411 guns retained the metal mag catch, guide rod, and standard sights. The later 910/410s switched all these parts for plastic. Overall great guns...

    4566 TSW slide stop movement

    If you are talking a downward motion when the mag drops free I believe you are fine. When you look at the slide stop there is a spring loaded plunger that makes contact with a part on the frame. That piece is angled causing the movement. Now some of my Smiths move slower than others, some just...

    Chief's Special recoil springs

    I have a Chief's Special 40 and need a recoil spring. Are they still available through Smith (I know that they don't have general support for these guns)? If not where else?

    Everyone enjoying shooting their 4586s?

    I, unfortunately, have already let my 4586 TSW, bought from Buds, go. I have never owned but have dry fired a "normal' double action only Smith semi auto. The TSW was nothing like the one I sampled. I thought at first that the trigger pull was similar to my Smith revolvers. I shot the TSW...

    This is not a drill!: S&W 4586's at Bud's for $259 delivered!!!

    Well, got my 4586TSW today and first impressions before firing and cleaning were not so favorable. Whoever had this for a duty weapon must not have given much thought to maintenance. Light rust on the nite sights, a gummy sticky substance on the trigger guard, bad residue and other build up...

    S&W 5904: Anyone have experience with these?

    stringfellow I am in the same decision making process, stainless or aluminum frame? However I am in love with the reverse two tone look, so I am leaning toward the 5904. I would like to have the frame blasted and then the slide matte blued for that look. On the other hand I like the heft of...
