TSW stands for Tactical Smith & Wesson. The TSW series were modified 3rd generation designs and started about 2000 - 2001. The changes (at least in my understanding) are the optional tactical rail, a full length frame rail for the slide to move on, and the slide and frame were matched to each other.
I will answer your second question with another question. Does your 4006TSW have a squared trigger guard? I have not personally seen a 4006 with the squared trigger guard that came on the 45's or 9mm's. Here is a link to the holsters Bianchi makes for the 4006 TSW. Bianchi Gun Holsters

Bamaboy, this article on the TSW is old but the content describes some of the differences in the regular 4006 and a TSW model. BTW, I have a 4006TSW and enjoy shooting it quite a bit. zorro49

Will magazines for the 4006TSW fit standard Model 4006 pistols? The reason I ask is that, although Midway USA lists magazines for the Model 4006, the only 11 rounders they show are cataloged for the 4006 TSW. Customer service @ Midway tried to help but wasn't certain of the compatibility of the mag with both pistols. He opined that the difference is probably only cosmetic but wasn't sure. Thanks for any input.

The 4000 series use the same mags, only differance is the AWB 10rd tubes. The followers are the same but the newer ones are blue in color instead of yellow.
