S&w m645

[Adam Helmer]

I recently acquired a S&W M645 in caliber .45 ACP. I liked its looks from the get go; it looks like a Browning Hi-Power on steroids and is stainless steel.

At the bench it performed very well with my Lyman #452460 200 grain cast SWC bullets and 700X. It will take a bit of time to transition from the M1911 Colts I have been using for lo these many years. The S&W lacks the grip safety and the ambidexterous safety is also the decocker for a DA first shot. On the plus side, it has an 8-round magazine and nice adjustable sights.

Who else likes the 645?
