Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Introduced in 1988 as part of Smith & Wesson's famous 3rd Generation semi-automatic pistol lineup, the Model 4506 was engineered to be the ultimate full-size stainless steel .45 ACP duty sidearm. Building on the heritage of the 2nd Generation 645, the 4506 incorporated significant ergonomic and mechanical upgrades, including a refined trigger-guard profile, improved slide serrations, one-piece wrap-around Delrin grips, and ultra-durable all-stainless steel construction. Widely adopted by law enforcement agencies across the country—most notably the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD)—and immortalized in 1990s cinema and television, the 4506 is revered by collectors for its bombproof reliability, target-grade accuracy, and soft recoil impulse.
This specific example is an authentic Springfield, Massachusetts manufactured Smith & Wesson Model 4506 bearing serial number TDK3079. Chambered in powerful .45 ACP, it features a 5-inch barrel, satin stainless steel slide and frame, ambidextrous slide-mounted safety/decocker lever, protective wing adjustable target rear sight, square trigger guard, and one-piece black Delrin grips. Preserved in fantastic condition w/ clean satin stainless metal surfaces, a bright mirror-like bore w/ sharp rifling, smooth DA/SA mechanics, and crisp lockup, this 4506 comes complete w/ one (1) factory 8-round stainless steel .45 ACP magazine. An iconic, investment-grade 3rd Generation S&W stainless pistol ready for the range, duty display, or placement in any advanced American handgun collection.
