Well, I finally found a 39-2 and bought it but it mat be too nice for me to shoot and carry! It looks to have maybe had a box or less of ammo shot through it in it's life. It's an A691XXX serial number. I would think it was one of the last years of it. The checkering is so sharp on the grips...

I never could afford one of these back then when it was new and I used to lust after them................But I have one now! I remember how jealous I was when my brother bought his 745 ispc model NIB!

hello,i have 2 of these, the barrel nut issue is a problem and cannot be properly tightened without a tool such as rimfire central user makes. his user name is ewk, he also has firing pins for these. i had a recoil spring go bad quickly from old age and bought a wolff spring standard weight. the...

thanks guys, that's what i needed. now maybe i'll get a 459 instead of a 439. whatever the economy will allow me to do.

i've been looking for a 39 or 439. during this i noticed the 59's and 459 are alot cheaper. did they have any problems that i don't know about? thanks.

took it out and fired it today, perfection! i must have one of the first ones because the rear sight isn't pinned in,only a screw that worked loose after 200 rounds, brought it home cleaned it and loctited the screw.

roger that! thanks!

i can take everyhting out of this gun except the rear sight blade,is there someting special to this? i've turned the screw all the wat one way and all the way in reverse? stumped! any thoughts? thanks!

ok i'll give her a try!
