Description
Smith & Wesson Model 4006 Performance Center, identified by the serial number XPX006, is a distinctive and historically significant pistol. Designed for competitive use in both IPSC and USPSA, this .40 S&W pistol boasts a 5” match Bar-Sto barrel with a progressive Schuemann hybrid compensator, effectively managing recoil. Its well-maintained, bright, and excellent bore attests to the firearm’s careful usage.
Originally utilized by Judy Woolley of Team S&W, this heavy-duty Smith & Wesson Model 4006 was tailored to meet major power factor requirements, showcasing preserved factory brushed and matte finishes. Notable modifications include the removal of the ambidextrous safety, replaced by a cylindrical plug for improved slide manipulation. Additionally, a commercial slide racker is installed in the original rear sight dovetail. Retaining its left-side-of-frame mounted manual safety, extended magazine release, and operating in a single-action-only mode, this pistol boasts custom features like a squared front trigger guard, extended beavertail protection, and hand checkering on both front and back straps.
The inclusion of a B square mount, firmly attached to the left side of the Smith & Wesson Model 4006, supports the accompanying Tasco Propoint red dot sight. Two original magazines with CP Bullets bumpers add to the ensemble. The included factory letter, dating the shipment to February 1992, provides authentication for the barrel, compensator, scope mounts, finish, special safety, grips, and specially tuned action. To further enrich the collector’s experience, Judy Woolley’s signed Team Smith & Wesson card is included.
This Smith & Wesson Model 4006 collection not only represents a high-performance competition pistol but also encapsulates a piece of shooting sports history, complete with personalized memorabilia from Judy Woolley’s competitive career. Collectors seeking firearms with provenance and competitive pedigree will undoubtedly find this package exceptionally appealing.
