I bought mine new, shortly after they came out. I had watched the progression of the Model 39 and 59 and heard the horror stories. The 3rd Generation guns were getting rave reviews, however, and I was drawn to the 6906. I bought one and it was instantly my favorite.

It shot well and carried well. That first, long double action trigger pull took some getting used to but was manageable. I was surprised with how accurate it was and reliability was excellent, even with the HP ammunition we were all using to get peak performance out of the 9mm.

When my Department began allowing the carrying of personal second guns the 6906 took its place in a vest mounted concealment holster where it rode until the GLOCK Model 26 was introduced, making a better pairing with my department issued duty Model 17.

I qualified with the 6906 for a few years and it never jammed and shot tight groups. I still own the 6906 and it's as good as ever. Although I now own several semi autos and my EDC is a Shield .40, the 6906 is still my darling and I'd never sale it, so the price they're asking is reasonable to me, pending condition and accessories.
