Since its almost the end of the month I called S&W yesterday to find out where the gold dot insert was. Talked to a " more informed guy" than on August 1. He told me it was " on order" but every one made was used in production and " one had to be pulled". Have over 20 S&Ws in collection and a few I shoot and carry. Been around guns since I was young and have shot many many different guns over 60+ years of shooting. Basically a Colt 1911 guy and had a nice collection of 1800 Colts years ago. Have a few Colt revolvers but IMHO S&W Made the best. Sadly the new S&Ws are not the same Quality, period. So go ahead all you die hard fans and bash me but its been my 60+ years of shooting and my $$$$, this 610 mountain gun will be the last new S&W I buy.
