No. Sorry if I conveyed that impression. The only similarity between a 409 and a 470/471 (other than both being Beretta products) is the name Silver Hawk, which they assigned to both--thus confusing the issue. The 409 version of the Silver Hawk was available in both DT and ST versions, but all were extractor guns.
