S&W's best woods carry 22 rim-fire ever made.

My 2206 6" Target model. Extremely accurate and runs like Swiss watch.

I'm really a revolver guy, but I've had this pre 39 since 1974. I bought it from Jack Roys in Hamtramck Michigan after Jack took it in from a man who was moving back to Poland. I paid $90 for it back then which was actually a lot to a someone making $4.25 per hour. Jack let me do a layaway on it.
The serial number is 1431. The pre 39s started production at number 1001 for reasons I never understand. It was shipped on 2-7-1956 to Harvan Sporting Goods in New York City, New York.

Moosedog if you had a feather up your nose and I had your pre 39 we both be tickled.

A rare beauty, I am glad you posted the story and pictures.

Different strokes for different folks, be a dull place if we all liked the same thing.

Thought several times about buying one just because of the price for well made gun with excellent service and warranty.

But no 45ACP or 10mm.

Interesting to see the early (pre) 39! The open magazine and shorter decocker lever caught my eye.

I went bonkers and bought two 39s at a gun show this weekend; a series one Model 39, and a Model 39-2. Another vendor there had two magazines with the S & W stamp on the baseplate. The guns appear to be 80% plus condition.

Both shoot like nobody's business and have glassy smooth actions. They eagerly consume JHPs and truncated ball. I think I could hide them better than my Glock 26 when I'm CCW.

More old autos

Heres another old 39 that was presented to then Detroit Police Commisioner, Johannes Spreen, when he retired in 1970.

The model 59 no dash looks cool with modified 39 grips on it.

Then there's those model 46s. Almost always find them in mint condition.

Model 39 first edition (I guess)

A nice shooter and shows very little wear. I am partial to the older Smiths. Nice and skinny for concealed carry. It's a gun show rescue.
