Lew Horton Special Edition 1985 In 45ACP//45 Colt?

[rfo1]

I know in 1985 S&W produced Special Edition revolvers for Lew Horton Distributors in
Models 24/624, M29/ 629 and M57/657 but did they ever make any chambered in .45 ACP or .45 Colt? A friend says yes but I have never seen one. Do they exist?

In 2006 there was a Lew Horton run of 500 (250 blued / 250 Nickel) of 3" Model 25's in .45 ACP/AR designated the Model 25-14. Here's mine...

Adios,

Thanks PB,
I wonder if S&W did a run of these in 1985 for L.H.D. ?

I don’t know about 1985, but in 1998 Lew Horton did a run of 150 625-7’s chambered in .45 Colt. They had a 3” full lug barrel and a bead blast finish.

There’s one shown in this thread:
