But I will say this..
I don’t know many folks who like any 1-2-3rd Gen S&W pistols and also don’t LOVE the Model 39/39-2!

I love my three 39’s!
The 39 is my only non 1911 semi auto , (excluding .22s and Glocks) and I have always considered myself as a revolver guy. To me the 39 has a similar appeal as a Hi Power. Not the best of the best today considering more modern/refined designs but definatly a classic design.
And it just feels good in the hand. Can't wait to shoot it.
