Thanks. I think the Illinois State Police were the first to use autos and they chose the Smith 59’s. My Brother in Law had one like you until the Oak Park gun ban. That’s the one the cops stole from him.

To: Shooter 2.5
Mine used to be a cop gun. I can still hit the black with it from 25yds, but the guy I bought it from was an expert.

Shortly after I purchased it we went down to the police range to shoot. He fired a full magazine as fast as he could pull the trigger. When the target was pulled back to the fireing line we discovered that the group measured a little more than an inch across. Later I found out that he had a whole house full of pistol and rifle trophies.
