This is a nice data set. 2 years of data! What are your conclusions?
Have you graphed this using just blue controls vs nickel?
If you don't have ship date or invoice/ receipts, then that data should be omitted for the original question until the dates can be confirmed.

Nice work everyone.

Mike

Hello Mr. Bliss, I got tired of the Gun Show S&W experts telling me that
mod-39 and -2s, did not have nickel releases, decockers and plates, when I had four NIB nickel guns with nickel controls at home. Two which I bought new from my local dist. My conclusions? I will leave that up to you.
Just added #131.

added #139 and #140. Two nice nickel controls with blue plates.

Sevens · #**131** 01-31-2022, 02:40 PM

To help and add to your fantastic database, you only want nickel 39/39-2?

I have one 39 and a pair of 39-2, none of the three are nickel. I have no factory letter or original box for any of them.

Mine don’t help your database in any way, do they?

Going forward I can record SN’s of any nickel 39/39-2 I see at shows, if that helps.

gmborkovic · #**132** 01-31-2022, 03:35 PM

Would help greatly. And appreciate it. Thanks and best, Mike
