Smith & Wesson 4566...

[Glock 'em down]

I got a new CDNN catalog today and they have used 4566 (police trade-ins) for $389.99 with night sights (they're past dim I'm sure) bobbed hammers and one mag. Unknown what grips. Some have factory - some have Hogues. Additional used mags are $19.99 each or $29.99 for new ones. The guy on the phone didn't know if they had red, yellow or black followers.

So after it's all said and done, one would run me...$389.99 for the pistol...$39.98 for two used mags (or $59.98 for two new ones)... $14.99 for shipping plus $20 to my FFL for the transfer.

Grand total = 464.96 (or $484.96 for two new mags)

Whaddaya think...good deal or not?

Good Deal

If I didn't have one already with about 10 extra mags I would be on that like white on rice. I guess its a moot point, but I know guys who paid a lot more for a .45 and got a lot less.

It sound like a good deal. I'm sure you could find just the 4566 and a single mag for the same price. For what its worth, I bought a 4006 from them a little over a year and a half ago, it needed a good cleaning, but as long as you get the top quality they have it is worth the money.

4566

I got a 4566 In February for $394 at a gun show. Came with 3 mags, no shipping, but did have the tax. Total was $416. since then I have found them in several places on the internet and all have been in the same price range of $385 to $440.
The dealer was out of Richmond, and they had about 10 at the time. They had no website, but if interested, pm me and I will dig up and send you their phone number.
Someone on this, and a couple of other forums had 10 of the 4566's the same week, at $379 I think and they sold in one day.

Same gun here Firearms For Sale for $325 Good, $350 Hand Select (from Good) and $375 Very Good. Might save you a few bucks.

Not a bad deal.

IMO the best deal on a 4566 is here in the classifieds. Scotter260 has a Melonite 4566 for under $600.

If I had the cash I'd own it......and have two of them. Regards 18DAI.

I picked one up off this forum last month. A police trade in that cleaned up exceptionally well. I'm very happy with it. It's my 4th, 3rd Gen S&W .45 and I've loved them all.

I bought two of the above-mentioned guns from twogunjay. They also cleaned right up.

I paid $449 for my 4566 this past January from J&G Sales. However, mine is a VG+ condition. Night sights were dim. I upgraded with XS Big Dots. (Their 4506 sights fit the 4566). J&G didn't have any spare mags though.

However, I've recently learned that Chestnut Ridge Supply has more than a few 4566's as well as 4566 TSW's available in good condition up to very good condition, starting at $349.

PS. Please remember, if you don't mind not having the gun for a while, you can remove the existing night sights and send them back to Trigicon(?) for recharging. (I'm told $40.00 plus shipping.)

Does CDNN sell mags if you don't buy the gun from them??

Forgive my ignorance. What does the "8" designate??

You are forgiven.
The 4586 is a double action only (8), all stainless (6) gun with a 4 1/4" barrel. Same size as a Commander. Eight round magazines.
