Heads up, 3rd gen fans. Aim Surplus has 5946 DAO LEO trade-ins for $350:

I know nothing about them. All I can say is I've gotten a few LEO Trade firearms from AIM over the last few years and been satisfied with the condition. Not collector grade but all at least 90%.

5946 used LEO are available elsewhere.
2 1/2 pounds of forged stainless a S&W that will last another 200 years!

Wonder where they are coming from. A letter may make a thrifty purchase even more interesting.

A bunch of these have shown up again in the last couple months. I picked one up from a different seller for around $275. I love it.

No idea where they came from though - frame dates 1998 according to SW. The barrel has the newer, larger stamped “9MM” on the chamber which seems like it started around 2004-2005 production based on my other 3rd gen’s. Mine was made in Springfield, but the seller said some were Houlton as well. Definitely a used gun cosmetically, but it was pretty clean.

Really no idea what the deal was with these - it doesn’t seem like RCMP and they aren’t NYPD.

Now $399. Not a bad price if you want a 5946.

Bryan from AIM said they got them second hand, so no idea where from.

RCMP is still looking for a new pistol, so likely wouldn’t see these until after adoption. Doubt Canada will surplus them… likely toss in the shredder. And even if they were, “RCMP/GRC” on the slide would be easy to spot.

I’m back/forth on picking one up. I have a 1006. A 5946 really isn’t anything I need.

. "A 5946 really isn’t anything I need."

Me either, but I could say that about most of mine.

I’d bet we will never see the RCMP units. If we are lucky they’ll part them out and only scrap the frames.

Well it's not like they can wear them out, RCMP could use for another 100 yrs!
