S&W 99 yes or no?

5-SHOTS:

Your truly excellent SW 99's BB stamp means that it was manufactured in 2011, and has the Ulm Germany city code as "proofing": the "antler" image.

Maybe most people out there have noticed that these Striker-fired S&W 99 & Walther 99 guns are DA/SA, a pretty rare combination.

Yukon_Cola: I chose a 99 AS because it was the only DA/SA & striker-fired handgun I had ever read about, and the fact that they were produced in Ulm Germany.

JCoopefan1911: That's a real shame about the gritty feel..
My 99 AS was bought ' nib '. The DA pull was smooth, with very little "stacking".
The increase in tension was proportionate to how far the trigger was pulled. Quite an engineering feat.

Was your 99AS bought used?

Did you buy it ?

No it sold before I got back to the store.

Thanks for the info. I also want to point out that my P99 AS is factory chambered for the 9x21 IMI cartridge exclusively for the Italian market. I have to check when I purchased it but this was probably some years after it was made.
Walther Germany still makes this model but it is no longer exported:

It's the PS AM LM model:

I've checked my data. I purchased that P99 AS new on April 2011. Rounds fired 4400. Still looks like it fired 440 rounds not 4400...
Merry Christmas to all the THR friends.

I had a S&W 99. Was not that impressed with it and sold it.

Information was requested, but purchase option was gone when OP returned to the store. Closing for mootness.
