At the last training weekend event I participated in, I grabbed my 39 no-dash for the 50yd accuracy portion, and completely blew away the others with their collection of Glocks, Sigs, and 1911 variants and clones in any caliber. That was with 115 gr FMJ commercial bulk reloads, and sweat fogging up my shooting glasses.

I was so happy with it, I used it for the rest of the day, even though it meant lots more magazine reloading and tactical reload situations. Of course, I neglected to bring the single-stack 9mm magazine holders, so I managed to shed two of my magazines from the .45 size holders running through a multi-target course.

The old M39 with the 6-groove barrel still outshoots everything else I own, except maybe the Model 41.
