PPC 9

Have you ever counted your total number of various configured PPC 9 targets? That would be an insight into the PPC 9 production numbers.

As I’ve said here before, the only name associated with any of the PPC 9 acceptance targets I’ve seen were by Tom Gordon. Was there anyone else crafting/test driving these?

Appreciate your input.

Jim

Hi Jim,

I've never counted them and didn't designate 5 or 6 inch - which would have been a good idea. Glad you have your target and I hope the gun is still running well.

Builders of these guns were Paul Liebenberg, Tom Gordon, Roland Provost and Jim Dalton

It was one of the highlights of my time in the PC to build these guns.....

To Taj,
You mentioned "while I was working there" does that mean the PC or S&W in general?

Hey Tom, it’s good to hear from you here on the Forum. We all hope that there’s more to come about all those unanswered questions about the Performance Center.

You could have the mag pinned to 10 rounds

I am not sure what years you are referring to, but in 1992 Team Smith & Wesson had Model 3566 Limited pistols with both 5" and 6" slide assemblies. Paul Liebenberg built them

Paul made the ugly magazine extension himself for his 3566 Limited

I was there then and do remember those guns. It's my understanding that Paul built all of those slides on a manual machine. Paul was an extremely talented guy. I saw a number of "one of's" he built. When you got him and Tom Gordon together there was no telling what they would conjure up.

Bill, the guy I mentioned up above or maybe in a recent thread, he also has a 6-inch long slide 4006 Limited, another slick 1-of-1.

I have a 5", s/n: PPC0055 with 6 mags. If by chance anyone has an extra mag well for sale, mine is long gone. I would be interested.

I had some reproductions made, just tightening up tolerances and anodizing them. I should have them ready soon
