Well, I completed my .45 and 10mm trifectas. Left side top to bottom: 4506-1, 4566 & 4576. Right side top to bottom: 1006, 1066, 1076. The photo does not do them justice when they're all spread out like that.

Very nice! I've been watching your collection grow - and am glad to see how far you've come with the big bore semi's. Now - whats next on your list?
I never realized, until I saw your photos, that there are a couple of different patterns to the factory grips.
Thanks,
Jerry

Well, Big-boy-wise, it would be interesting to find a 1026 or 4526. Other interesting finds would be a 3914 to go with my two 3913s, a 4513TSW pre-rail to go with my 4516-1 and -2, a 4013TSW pre-rail to go with my 4013 and 4014, and a 4003 to go with my two 4006s. Finally, a nice 3913NL would be nice, and I'll bet a 3914NL is pretty rare and would definitely command my attention. Oh yeah, I could use some $$$ just in case I'm lucky enough to find this stuff.

A 4596 would sure look good with what you have already too.....There's just something magic about the 3rd Generation Pistols. You are an inspiration to guys like me....Zeb

Ahhhh! I see a problem. That 4506-1 has adjustable sights while all other have Novak rear sights. You must immediately dispose of that gun and get one with Novak sights.
Since you need to get rid of it, I could help by offering a token sum to take it off your hands!

That 4596 is very interesting, but it cannot be brought into California because it's not on the California DOJ's list of approved handguns, actually, very few 3rd generation pistols are. C&R Handguns and those non-C&R handguns sold by a private party or on consignment in the state, are exempted. That's one of the reasons why collecting out here can be challenging.

As you can see, I took the 4506-1 out to the indoor range today. I don't know, but it sure looks like a keeper to me.

Denver Dick....I think you can shoot all of them like that.... Too bad California sees that 4596 as "verboten"...It would make a great companion piece to your collection. I simply can't afford it, or it would reside in my own safe....Keep looking though. You still have some legal gaps to fill. Great Collection Sir....Zeb
