Smith & Wesson, Model 686 Plus equipped with Crimson Trace laser grip. Crimson Trace is an American manufacturer of laser sight equipment, chiefly but not exclusively for pistols. The firm specializes in in-line upper-grip-mounted red and green laser units, trigger-guard mounted sights, and training units.
The ASP was a reworked Smith & Wesson Model 39 or 39-2, employing a shortened slide, a fixed bushing (in lieu of the Smith & Wesson designed collet bushing); the unique Guttersnipe sight system, clear Lexan grip-panels, a fully ramped and throated shortened barrel, and a smoothed and radiused profile to ensure no risk of snagging on the draw.

The Model 5904 has an aluminum alloy frame and blued carbon steel slide, also with a 15-round magazine, and inspired two other derivative pistols, the Smith & Wesson Models 915 and 910. The Model 5905 featured a carbon steel (blued) slide and frame, and was produced in 1991 only in very limited numbers.
The first two digits reflect the caliber (9, 40, or 45). The 915 and 910 are both based on the Smith & Wesson 5904 - the numeral 9 stands for "9mm" (the caliber), and the following digits 15 and 10 for the magazine capacity, respectively. [1] Like the Model 5904, both the 915 and 910 utilized a carbon steel slide and an aluminum alloy frame.
In 2018, Smith & Wesson introduced the M&P 380 Shield EZ. As the name suggests, the Shield EZ has a number of convenience features including an easy-to-rack slide and an easy-to-load magazine. [16] In late 2019, Smith & Wesson added a 9mm offering to the Shield EZ line. [17] Both the .380 and 9mm variants feature an internal hammer.
A second version, the M&P Bodyguard 380 Crimson Trace, reintroduced a model with an integrated laser, but instead of Insight, the laser supplier is Crimson Trace and the laser button is now red instead of gray and also incorporates the updated slide and hand grips. Unlike the rest of the M&P pistols, the M&P Bodyguard 380 is not striker fired.
The gun's purpose was to kill sentry dogs or guards without alarming the main target. [1] [4] The Mk 22 was the basis for the later Smith & Wesson Model 59, retaining the original 9mm Parabellum caliber, but incorporating a wider aluminum frame with a straight backstrap to accommodate a double-column magazine that could hold 14 rounds.
