4006 CHP and 4013 sighting

The 4013/4014/4053/4054 and the 4031TSW are totally different firearms.

The 4013/4014/4053/4054 are all single stack auto-loaders built on the 45 frame. They use 10MM magazines that have a spacer in them to shorten them to 40S&W length. They make great candidates for a 10MM Auto conversion

The 4013TSW is a double stack auto-loader based on the 40S&W frame. It takes the Shorty40 magazines or the 4006 magazines with or without the spacer installed. This firearm is not convertible to 10MM Auto

Thanks. I was aware of the Single-stack 4013, but thinking there was a non-TSW 4013 for some reason.
 
I just had a nice conversation with Mark regarding the TSW's. He says these are among the cleanest police trades he has ever seen. Excellent condition down to the followers in the magazines. Something else that I don't have any real NEED for but now have a tremendous WANT for...

So will post up when mine comes in.

Oh man! :( You are killing me here!!! :(

Fight the urge... Fight the urge... Fight the urge... Fight the urge...
 
Come on. You know you want to. What harm can come from just ONE MORE 3rd Gen in .40 S&W?:p
What harm??? :confused: What harm??? :eek:

My gun budget for the rest of this year is so limited that my 3 originally planned acquisitions are already down to 2 and very possibly headed to 1 the way things are going. :o Plus, you want me to break my solemn oath to my good wife and buy another .40??? :eek: :eek: :eek:

I don't see it happening. :( Cash is way too tight right now. :o
 
Mark said there will be many many more shipments coming in so no rush if your cash strapped right now. Supposed to be another shipment in the next couple weeks.

A couple weeks won't help me right now but maybe there will be some floating around next year. And I'd pay extra just to see the one I would be getting. My luck with "random picks" has not been good. :o
 
The 4006TSW (CHP).

Mark said that there would be no more 4013s.
 
What new gun are they getting ?? I just picked up a new 2.0 in 40 L/E package with 3 mags and night sights it is great

This is not an exaggeration, my 4006 TSW is very nice, not perfect, not in the box, but very nice. The integral rail is similar to my Sig X5 and so is the weight. This is the gun that S&W should still make if they wanted to compete in the upper end of the metal frame semi auto market.

The 4013 TSW is not as nice, wear in all the usual aluminum frame areas though not abused. Still it fills a hole in my collection of 40s, maybe it's just a bunch of S&Ws.

No photos, I am technologically incompetent.
 
I have the older CHP 4006 it was a nice clean one the guy who had it must of been a gun guy the D/A pull is very smooth . I was watching the new 4006 Tac from years back when they got them , I would try and get CHP guys to chime in . I now have one on the way. I think it will be here Fri.I saw very few come up for sale once a retired CHP had his for sale but wanted to much .
 
Delayed per usual, but I did get a chance to check them out. I don't typically purchase police trade-ins, so I cannot really compare the condition to others. They came in a priority mail box wrapped in dense white foam, no individual boxes. They had a little more wear than I was anticipating, but I guess they are on par with a 10 year old service weapon. The most intriguing wear mark was a groove in the top part of the bulge at the end of the barrel. All three of them had it in some form and I'm not exactly sure what would cause it. More to come when the delay gets lifted.
 
So with about 7200 sworn officers, Id say the value of my plain Jane 4006 just tanked.
I wouldn't agree... in two ways.

First, the value of a "plain jane" 4006 hasn't been high in YEARS, so it's not tanking. Secondly, many of us think the TSW guns are particularly gaudy, and prefer the non-TSW versions better. I have a 4566TSW that I got during "the great flood" and heck yeah I would swap it for a clean, no-ugly-billboard-and-horrendous-rail 4566 any day.

No worries whatsoever about your 4006. That pistol was never going to be the down payment on a retirement home anyway. ;)

I think any nice clean older Smith auto is going up you never see them around back in the day some gun shops around here would not even want yours on a trade , different now . They dont make them anymore and they keep going UP .
 
Well, I got mine, and I am very pleased with the condition, the price and the pistol. Before I bought it, I knew it was heavy, I knew it had the integral rail, I knew it was decocker only, I knew it had the bobbed hammer and did not have the trigger play spring. I knew they were used but did not know the true condition until it came in. I am pleased.:)

I also noticed that the CHP barrel had a little groove in the unlocking shoulder that is not on the regular 4006TSW barrel. Take a look at the photo. What is the reason for this? The CHP barrel is the top barrel.
