Smith & Wesson Model 4516-2 Compact .45 ACP, Third Generation, Matte Stainless, DA/SA, 3.75 in Barrel, 7+1
The Smith & Wesson Model 4516-2 is a compact, single-stack .45 ACP from S&W's Third Generation line, built on an all-stainless-steel frame and slide with a matte finish. It features a 3.75 in barrel, 7+1 capacity, and the frame is stamped "Mod 4516-2," confirming this desirable -2 variant.
As a compact, all-stainless .45, this 4516-2 pairs durable construction with practical carry dimensions. Its DA/SA system with an ambidextrous slide-mounted safety/decocker and an external spurred hammer provides familiar Third-Gen ergonomics and controls.
The slide uses S&W's Third-Generation external extractor, a lowered ejection port, and rear-only cocking serrations. Fixed low-profile three-dot sights are dovetailed front and rear for a secure, service-grade sight picture.
The one-piece black wraparound synthetic grip has molded checkering and S&W medallions, and the rounded trigger guard is classic to this model. The pistol has a left-side magazine release and a single-stack magazine design for a slim profile.
This example includes the original box, one 7-round magazine with a finger-rest floorplate, and uninstalled Sprinco dual recoil spring sets specific to the 4516-2.
