By all means, go for it!

I carried one when I was a civilian police officer (1975-76).

When I went back into USAF, I sold it (Looking back on that- really a dumb move.).

Several years later I managed to purchase another 39-2 (1980) and I still have it.

Used to qualify for my CHL in both KS and TX, after moving to Tx.

Great pistol and very accurate and reliable!!!!
