Because I am a reloader, I have evolved to an all-revolver owner/shooter; my cases get used and reused by me. Although recently I have to admit that you can (at least today) buy 9mm almost as cheap as you can reload it.

But, if I were to ever return to the bottom-feeder side, the 39 and 59 models would cause me to pursue guns like this beautiful 59: and in nickel no less! Geez, some guys have all the luck. An absolute beauty! Now shoot it. It was born to throw lead downrange!!

I've been debating shooting it. Never fired, pristine. Half the guys at the shop were "don't shoot that thing" the other half "let 'er rip" - lol. I'll see, I have too many guns before this that I still need to get to the range with ! Thanks!
