Iconic villain from the dark side ! (S&W Model 4505)

[Walter Rego]

I was unfamiliar with that model, but they sure are beautiful. I had imagined how my 1006 would have looked if it was ever available in blue steel and now I know.
Is it all steel, or does it have an anodized alloy frame ?

My 1006 had the same Hogues on it when I bought it. They were too fat. I bought both the straight and arched Delrin grips, tried both and liked the arched type better.

But that blue steel sure would look great with some Goncalo Alves Hogue grips or maybe checkered walnut from that maker in Turkey (I can't remember the name).

Thanks for posting OP! I didn't even know S&W produced the 4505! Really makes a great looking pistol, I'm partial to the flat back strap but I have smaller hands.
