      Best pistol mod I ever downloaded.

      Pros:
      - Animations are perfect, in particular the reloading of an empty single pistol.
      - Beautiful model.
      - Goes very well with Haus' excellent FNP45 sound mod.
      
      Cons:
      - These pistols look and feel so good to the point that I'll hang on to these handguns when I should've taken a Magnum or a melee weapon.

      Pros:

      -- Punchy but smooth animations-- really love the dual reload.
      
      -- GREAT model with HP baked normals.
      
      -- Excellent textures.
      
      -- Nice reflections/ shine on the metal parts; they're almost realistically reflective but don't glow in the dark.

      Cons:

      -- Took a while to find sounds that I though really matched up with the mod. (Well, I had to put something.)
      
      -- Phong/envmap mask has some odd-looking damage -- but I grew to like it after a while.

      Conclusion:

      Probably my favorite of the pistol mods I've used to date.

      Pros:

      -Fit well with visuals of the game
      -Animation works well.

      Cons:

      Makes you a tendency to use dual pistols when a melee weapon might been a better choice.

      Conclusion:

      I highly recommend this!

      Pros:

      - Great model and hires textures
      - Nice shaders
      - Brand-new animations
      Nice to see pistols that are held differently when single- and dual-wielded.

      Cons:

      - I'd like new sounds with these

      Conclusion:

      Apart from classic 1911s, IMO this is the best pistol replacement mod for L4D2 so far. The new version looks even better than before.

      Pros:

      -A very nice improvement on the earlier release.
      -High quality pistol grip i noticed
      -Every animation is very smooth and they are very nice to enjoy
      -New different walk animation which is brilliant, i like it a lot.
      -I love how you use your thumb on an empty clip reload!
      

      Cons:

      -I don't think these pistols have any cons.

      Conclusion:

      Very nice upgrade for me as i used the old W&W 5906 pistols, smooth as heck animations, also a new high very detailed model to look at.

      Pros:

      Improved on the old S&W 5906's you released earlier.
      Better Detail on the pistols from the Grip to the Slide, they also seem to be a bit wider.
      Better Animations for  Reload/Draw/Shoot/Walk/ EVERYTHING! feels more organic and less autonomic, especially the dual wield. 
      Kept the same Flashlight from the first mod. 

      Cons:

      I would have liked the pistols to be a bit farther away. My FOV is set to 67 and the look a tad big compared to the original 5906's, The texture on the pistols needs a bit more personalty. need to match the awesome animations and show off the detail of the model. 

      Conclusion:

      I always liked these pistols, and now with new animations and a new high detail model, they only improve on the original. The biggest improvement to note is the animations. i can see the growth of arby26 as an animator comparing his first 5906's to these new ones. Walk, Draw, Melee, Reload, Dual wield, and even the Last Shot Animation. all have more movement and fluidity. as i said It Feels more organic and less autonomic. I hope that Miztaegg will remake his Dual tone 5906's with this new version. and i hope arby26 continues improving.
