SMITH AND WESSON MODEL 457 PISTOL

 

The Smith and Wesson Model 457 pistol is another in the company's line of no-nonsense defense guns. It's a compact pistol with the full firepower of eight rounds of .45 ACP (seven in the magazine and one in the chamber). The aluminum alloy frame and carbon steel slide and barrel result in a weight of 29 ounces unloaded, making it an excellent choice for carry.

The sights on the 457 are fixed white dot. The rear sight has rounded edges to eliminate snagging on clothing. The pistol is finished in a durable matte black for eliminating glare. The magazine has a rubber extension that serves as a finger rest as well as an aid in slamming the magazine home.
