Default 4006 and 59

Hi again form Australia

Long time no speak

Sorry I have been away from the forum for a while due to a change in work circumstances (made redundant and therefore less money to spend on S&W hahah)

Just wanted to check in again and show my latest acquisition, picked up today - nothing special - just a nice clean little 4006. They are uncommon in Australia since the 'buy-back' (as are most of the awesome gen 3 handguns!).

Anyway here it is alongside my 1972 Mod 59. It came with 2 mags.

Cheers

Mike!

zzzzxx

G'day Mate
Nice set, I have the same pair. I thought you Aussie's were gun-less. Glad someone down there has a few!
Take Care,
T&B

Can you educate me on what gun ownership is like where you live?
