    I only buy Glocks, save for a S&W J Frame when a Glock won't fit.

    With that said, if I were going to buy an antique metal pistol it would be a S&W 5904.
    Why do the loudest do the least?

    Anyone wanting to look up integrally-railed S&Ws should Google:

    Integrally-railed 5906TSW
    Integrally-railed CHP 4006TSW
    Integrally-railed WVSP 4566TSW
    Integrally-railed 5946

    Check images and you can see what they look like. The WVSP and 5946 are Melonited pistols.

    Here's a link to snw19_357's 3rd Gen alloy 59 series of pistols: http://smith-wessonforum.com/members...gen-page2.html

    The 5904TSW is pictured.

    I'd love to see new 3913-3914's but it won't happen. I maybe could have sold 10 of them to females in the last year. But probably not for what they would cost.

    I shot a 3913 and a 3914 until they were so worn I could not repair them and destroyed them.

    I would like to see a new 3913 made 1/4" shorter in both grip and slide length. Thin the slide 0.050" too. I would buy one in a heartbeat.

    I'd be up for a 4566 or even a 4506 but not at a $1000. I can currently buy those at around $450 (4566) from the secondary used police gun market

    Classics will always sell well.

    Well like I said, I don't have facts to back it up. Just my personal speculation of teaching new shooters. Most have no idea they even exist and the ones who do have zero interest in them. Older shooters seem to think they are still forged on Mt. Olympus.

    I would buy them for sure. If not for the simple fact that they are great shooters.

    I remember them having a really sweet double action pull and would like to have a DAO version. If they cost $500-600 I'd buy one. I will probably try to find a used one anyway.
    Better equipment doesn’t make you a better shot. Better practice makes you a better shot.

    I’m not impressed by a lifetime warranty. I’m impressed by something built to last a lifetime!
