5906 third generation high cap 9mm made with 4006/4043 aluminum/stainless steel

5946: made the same? same material, something about shorter trigger guard.

Bronson: Sir; welcome

5906 - all stainless steel, TDA (fires single or double action), safety/de-cock, Hi-cap.

5946 - all stainless steel, DAO (double action only), bobbed hammer, Hi-cap.

both are nice third generation smith&wesson guns by the way.
