Found a 845 (45 Limited) and....

Congrats on your incredible score!

I really must stop coming around here as it seems I regularly have to keep adding something to my wish list!
 
Got a pleasant surprise this afternoon. The gun shop that I bought the 845 at called to let me know they were doing inventory & found the original box for my gun...it has most of the original items inside that include an unused PC mag, the (extra) target spring & a guide rod (minus the plunger/spring). It also has the owners manual, warranty cards & a PC services price list sheet...

Lucky Dog, Lucky Dog, Lucky Dog :eek: :eek: :eek:
 
Lew Horton letter

Just a footnote: On a whim, I sent an email to Lew Horton, to see what else I could find out & verify on this gun, & they promptly replied back with the following. Earl from Lew Horton was good enough to answer the questions I had & also included a promo flyer on this model for me.

The exact quantity (435) produced has been batted around but this nails it down. I hadn't seen the retail price ($1470) listed anywhere either & he answered that too. That was really nice of them to take the time on this. Thanks! :)

Now if I could just be lucky enough to find one of the others shown in the flyer. :D

I have Had the hammer "bounce back" on other S&W autos. It doesn't seem to have any affect on regular function. I have an 845 and agree that it is an exceptional handgun. They could probably sell some more if they would make them.

Hammer bounce back

I have Had the hammer "bounce back" on other S&W autos. It doesn't seem to have any affect on regular function.

I normally keep snap-caps in my guns but a few weeks ago I was playing with my 1076 & noticed it does it too now, without the snap-caps. Never had it do it before, but like you say, it hasn't affect operation.
