Albeit I love the "old" S&W wheelguns I would'nt commit suicide with a S&W semi-auto. Biggest POS I have ever encountered is a S&W SA.......

And I was fair about it. I just assumed I got a bad one, sent it back under warranty and S&W replaced it. The one they sent back went south after the 333'd round requiring more warranty work. All of this with commercial black hills ammo (no reloads). Confidence is extreamly low for the S&W SA's for me based on the above experience and have I said I DON'T like S&W autos enough !!!

Stay Safe Archy !!

Way back in 1968 I got a S&W Model 59 9mm that has gone through over 10,000 rounds with the only malfunctions directly attributable to some Canadian military surplus ammo with exceptionally hard primers. The gun has never once stovepiped failed to feed or failed in any other way with the above exception. misfires were corrected by pulling the trigger DA mode. This is one of the older guns with the barrel bushing, aluminum alloy frame, and a revolver grade trigger. I guess way back then I got one of the good ones.
