Hoping to start collecting guns that I want just because I want soon. This might have to go on the list.

I bought a 4506 for an off-duty gun after we traded our revolvers for 5906s. I also shot some IDPA and bowling pin matches with it.
"I then moved on to other things and the big Smith faded into history along with MC Hammer pants and the Mullet."
Wait? What? When did this happen?
Congrats. Very nice find on the 4506.
Nice find.
It needs leather. Where's your Miami Classic?
"When the phone rang, Parker was in the garage, killing a man."
Those were good shooting and reliable pistols. I carried both iterations as a duty-gun back in the 80's. Stock up on magazines if you plan to shoot it much as prices and availability are starting to really get sporadic.
The path of least resistance will seldom get you where you need to be.
We may lose and we may win, but we will never be here again.......
Had one, for a 1911. Believe me, over the last couple of days my ebayfu has been strong. Holsters altogether are hard to find for an early production sample like this one, with the hooked trigger guard. That's probably a good thing though, otherwise I'd probably do something stupid like actually carry the thing.

I have a police trade in 4506 with decocker only safety (I think it is a Harrisburg PD gun..HPD). The double action pull is great but the single action pull is kinda bad. I have a 459 which has much better trigger and is lighter too (40 oz vs 28 oz). I love them both.
