I stumbled on a new 39-2 after I sold my Glock 19. What a pleasant surprise the first time I shot it. I did replace the hammer spring with a lighter one from Wolff and bought two 9 round mags from Midway. They also have 8 rounders if you prefer as the 9 will stick out a little. Nicest gun I ever...

great find. I stumbled on a brand new one a few months ago and didn't realize what I had till I started reading this forum. Needless to say this one doesn't go away

shooting advice update I installed the 17# spring and ran four mags through it and was amazed at the difference. I took all the advice , new spring, better mental picture and am looking for the book . The pistol was good to shoot now it's a great shooter. Too bad the operator isn't as good as...

42 Years as an ironworker and I agree. Not only American made but Union made and they fit right out of the box . Used to do Redwings but over the years they hurt my feet. Thorogood are great

Appaloosa, with Ed Harris is one of the best historical " gun wise " movies ever. I watch it at monthly

I don't know if it's kosher for a full blown shout out but Tabor's in Crossville TN. is the best. I walked in and bought a brand new 39-2 350 OUT THE DOOR. Plus I've traded in some old not used stuff for way more than I thought. Great people great service.

lots of good advice here. Wish you guys lived closer, nothing like having someone with knowledge standing there telling you first hand. You're absolutely right about the mental thing, I need to start slow with basics and as the man said practice, practice, practice. I'm considering steel target...

I know Smith and Wesson has the reputation of having the best triggers but the 39 is actually new. Will the trigger get any smother or easier with use. I guess I'm looking for that magic solution but it's a good excuse to shoot more isn't it. Do like the pistol though, so much easier on the hand...

as an oldtimer I shot rifles and shotguns most of my shooting life. In the last couple of years I got interested in handgun shooting but I was trained in shooting that " perfect " poly pistol. I recently bought a 39-2 which is a pleasure to shoot except that first long pull heavy first DA shot...

nice job. Looks like the 39 is keeping some pretty good company

Are roadrunners pests also. I always did root for Wile E and now I know why

Don't mean offend or bring up old rivalries but you guys don't know what it is to be treated like the Beverly Hillbillys in your own hometown. I was born in GA and have traveled this whole country and love every part of it. I take great joy in the different ways and cultures of all the places...

Funny we do it all wrong and they come down here. Really like your warehousing idea
