The Smith & Wesson 459 was the 2nd generation of the S&W 59 (which was a double stacked magazine version of the S&W 39).  The only real difference between the 459 and the [[Smith & Wesson 59]] was adjustable rear sights (and a slight modification to the front sight to accommodate the higher profile of the newer rear sights) and the fact the the 400 series pistols had an alloy frome with a steel slide. Early production models had the round trigger guard. Later models had the square triggerguard.  It was only in production for 8 years, being again replaced by a later generation of S&W auto 9mm handguns, the 5900 series.
