"There were only 15 to 25 made of the black 4566s with forward cocking serrations."


That said, the rest of us have to get very lucky or find an alternative. Here is my KSP 4566TSW all stainless. With its Decocker Only, Night Sights and no rail configuration, I will just have to live without front cocking serrations and Melonite finish.

Beautiful KSP 4566TSW RedCardinal!

I am always looking out for one of those. That is my favorite configuration for the 4566 - spurless hammer, decock only, rail free (I don't hang things on my handguns).

My old 4566 duty gun is configured similarly. With Novak night sights. It was part of a large order by the State to equip a couple of University Police agencies. My agency piggy backed on the order. It was given to me when I retired. Great 45! Regards 18DAI

18DAI it is good to hear that LE and military veterans, that use firearms daily, but are younger than us older folk, find these 3td Gen guns to be excellent firearms. When talking to most guys at the range I get a "deer in the head lights" look when I mention any 3rd gen gun. So much so that I start to wonder if I am just stuck back in time. This is helpful to validate my perception and the reality that S&W 3rd gen pistols are some of the best out there. (I do like the older Sigs Sauers too)
