I was given an S&W 4516-2 by a very good friend ....evidently, a REAL good friend (ex-cop.. used to be his service pistol... he owns some Glocks now)... He wanted me to get back into shooting (I used to shoot a lot back home in MT.. but after the 'service overseas' and moving to the east coast 34 years ago, I have not had the desire)

I have some questions that some of you may be able to answer..

1). I can't find the specifications/users manual on this weapon on the S&W web site. Am I searching the site poorly (more than possible ) or is this info no longer available there??

2). I am looking at the overall size (using a ruler.. as per #1 above, I cant find official specs) and I see it is about 7.25" x 5.25" x 1" it weighs about 36 ounces w/o mag... Except for the weight, this puts it in the compact class of pistol....?? (That was a question not a statement)... It seems to large to me to be in that class... comments

3). The rear sites looks to have windage adjustment, but I cant quite figure how to move the site. (it seems to consistantly shoot 2"-3" to right at 50 ft.. Could be me). is it adjustable?

Lastly, have people had expierence with them they would like to share? I only have 150 rounds into the pistol at present, but find it quite fun on the range. I am a 'big' lad (6'5" 290lb... or so ) so the recoil isnt even noticed.
