Description
This isn’t just a Smith & Wesson Model 845 — it’s the Model 845. Folks. That’s right, the very first one off the line. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or a shooter with a soft spot for precision-built pistols, this piece is worth a closer look.
Let’s talk bones and build. The all-stainless steel frame and slide don’t just look sharp in that brushed silver finish — they’re made to endure. Match after match, range day after range day, it shrugs off wear like it was born for it. Which, frankly, it was.
Now, about the grip — textured just enough to anchor your hand without chewing it up. When you’re trying to squeeze out every bit of accuracy under pressure, that matters more than most people think. And the “Model of 1998” rollmark on the slide? That’s not just a date stamp — it hints at something special, a nod to its limited production roots. Possibly a special edition. Definitely not something you’ll find sitting in every gun safe.
Of course, being a Smith & Wesson performance model, it’s got the kind of crisp, competition-ready trigger that makes you forget you’re even pulling it. And the balance? It walks that fine line between fast and stable — ideal for folks who know how to wring every ounce of control from a single-action shot.
But let’s be honest — the real magic here is that. That’s more than just digits — it’s a bragging right, a little piece of history that sets this pistol apart from every other 845 out there.
So, whether you’re in it for the engineering, the collectibility, or just the thrill of owning something rare and ready to run, this Model 845 delivers.
