Just Ordered a Used 4006...

[mbinky]

...Melonite finished Colorado State Police pistol from Bud's Gun Shop. I have a 5906, and have been looking for an example of a 4006 for some time. Even with the flood of 4006's on the market, I never took the plunge because I'm not the biggest fan of the .40 cartridge. So, I was sorta waiting for something a little "different". Well, this caught my eye and I couldn't help myself!

How is the recoil on the 4006 series? Softer, than say, my P226 .40? Can't wait! I love the Smith third gen pistols, built like tanks!

Thanks!

I'll be the first to say bravo.I hope you love it.I have the sister gun 4046.The only difference is your's is double /single action and mine is dao.The recoils in this guns is about the same as a 9mm.

That seems like a pretty good buy.
On the Melonite finish, just what exactly is that.
I have a CS40 and the finish looks similar to it.

I have a CSPD 5906. Mine does not have the nifty CSPD insignia engraved on it though.

I bought a new 4006 in 1996 and love it...you will also.

Let us know when you get this pistol, I am also considering this. She is a good looking 4006.
the safety looks like decock only, that would make it even sweeter. Let us know what kind of shape it is in. And of course PICTURES.

I have a CHP 4006, in excellent condition, with the best "double action" part of the traditional DA, that I have seen. I don't know if this is normal, or is it an action job? I too have not been a fan of the 40 S&W round, but the two models of S&W pistols in 40 has change that, both are like shooting someone elses 9mm. My 4006 has the decocker, which I really like. I want a S&W in 9mm [third gen] with a decocker now. Are they availible without sending it to S&W for the change? Or maybe order the parts and convert it myself! I am a careful "tinkerer" Any comments

I love mine. Soft recoil and fine functioning with three types of ammo so far.

Very nice. Looking for an older CHP 4006 (non-TSW) myself.

I love the 3rd gens , was trying to find a good 4006 and ended up with a 4026 instead . Surprising enough the grip config actually feels alot like my M&P40 and is more accurate than my M&P . I believe its the all metal construction helps dampen the recoil .

The 4006 shoots great. The recoil is about the same as the 9mm 3rd gens. My 4006 is accurate, at least when I am anyway, reliable and just a great shooter.
