Wow! That's not a gun you just pick up every day. It's so rare to see one come up for sale. I grabbed one earlier this year, and didn't even know what it was when I bought it.

Congratulations,,,,Great find! That's a keeper! 
Have one in my collection and it's a pleasant pistol to shoot and I've never had a problem with it! I consider that a true Smith & Wesson classic! 
You're going to enjoy it!

Now don't you go callin' that 39-2 old. Heck, I'm older than the oldest pre Model 39. They are great guns and it looks like you found yourself a particularly nice one. And congratulations on acquiring one of the best looking S&W semi-autos ever made. Some will argue that the Md 52 is the best, but whatever, they are fine, fine looking guns.
Hey, didn't I just read about you getting a Md 681? Dang, you are on a roll!

The reason the 52 looks so good is because it looks like a longslide 39.
