The Smith & Wesson 4046 is a semi-automatic pistol that belongs to the S&W 40-series, which was introduced in the early 1990s. It’s notable for its full-size frame and chambering in .40 S&W (Smith & Wesson) caliber, a popular round for law enforcement and self-defense due to its balance of stopping power and manageable recoil.
Key Features:
Caliber: .40 S&W
Action Type: Double Action/Single Action (DA/SA) — meaning the first shot is double action (pulling the hammer back and firing with one trigger pull), and subsequent shots are single action (with the hammer cocked after the first shot).
Capacity: Typically 11+1 rounds (in standard magazines).
Barrel Length: 4.25 inches, providing a good balance between accuracy and concealability.
Overall Length: Around 7.6 inches.
Weight: Approximately 30 oz (unloaded), making it a bit on the heavier side, which can help mitigate recoil.
Frame Material: Stainless steel, known for durability and resistance to corrosion.
Grip: Checkered synthetic polymer, offering a firm hold, but the grip can feel large for people with smaller hands.
Sights: Typically comes with fixed white dot sights, though they may vary depending on the specific model or aftermarket upgrades.
Notable Aspects:
Safety Features: The 4046 is equipped with a manual safety, as well as a decocking lever, which allows the shooter to safely decock the hammer without firing.
Ergonomics: It‚s known for its comfortable, though somewhat bulky, grip. While some shooters find the larger frame a bit cumbersome, others appreciate the solid feel and stability.
Construction: The 4046 is built with a steel frame and slide, making it more rugged and durable than some polymer-framed guns, but also heavier.
Usage:
The S&W 4046 was primarily designed for law enforcement and military use, with its robust design meant to handle the stresses of heavy duty use.
Although it has a bit of a “retro" feel, it still performs well for personal defense or tactical shooting.
It’s not as common today as some other handguns, but for those who enjoy steel-frame pistols with a traditional design, it can still be a reliable and sturdy choice.
