Description
You don’t come across something like this every day. This rare experimental semi-auto from the Smith & Wesson Performance Center isn’t just a firearm—it’s a conversation starter, a mystery, and a purpose-built competition machine rolled into one sleek, stripped-down frame.
Let’s start with what it doesn’t have: no iron sights, no distracting markings—just a lone serial number etched into the frame. Everything else? Purpose-driven. The slide is lightened with bold weight relief cuts, and an integrated compensator helps tame recoil for faster follow-up shots. It’s as if the Performance Center took a race gun, stripped it to its essentials, and left only what mattered.
The Tasco Propoint red dot perched on top isn’t just a nice touch—it’s the whole sighting system. There’s no backup. Just your eye, the dot, and the target. Add in the checkered walnut grips, textured front and backstraps, and a generous beavertail grip safety, and you’ve got a pistol that feels planted in the hand, even when you’re pushing for speed. Reloads? Quick and clean, thanks to the flared mag well.
Now, here’s the kicker: we don’t know of another one like it. No model name. No production run. Just one very deliberate, very specific creation from the minds at Smith & Wesson.
It also comes with an extra magazine—because honestly, once you shoot it, you’re not going to want to stop.
Whether you’re a seasoned competitor or a serious collector, this pistol isn’t just rare—it’s radically original. And once it’s gone, it’s gone.
