Magazine for a model 6904

[Trinidad Bill]

I bought a 6904 around the first of the year and it only had one mag. As luck would have it, someone posted 3 for sale here on the forum. They still pop up every now and then, and almost always on the famous auction site.

I have some 59 series mags, but I need to buy a couple of those spacers they make to fill the gap when inserted into the 69 series guns. Post up a photo when you have time. They are great carry guns!

Where can you get the spacers for the 59xx mags to use on a 69xx?

You can get them on that big auction website or go direct to the manufacturer:

Precision Gun Specialties

Lets hope that never happens!

Just to be clear, when the stuff finally hits the fan hard here in MA and even pre-ban hi-caps become illegal with a "life prison sentence for possession" (same as for bump stocks), I will have no choice but to go with Mec-Gar 5900-series 10-round magazines for my 9mm full-size double-stack 3rd Gens. I have a small number of S&W OEM 5900-series 10-rounders, but not nearly enough if 10-rounds is to become the only legal option. I'm actually very glad that Mec-Gar is still making them.

My bigger problem will be with my 6900-series pistols... and that's where I say that it makes no sense (to moi) to go with full-size 10-rounders in compact pistols regardless of magazine brand... hence, my continuing search for 6900-series 10-round magazines. Except for the Robertson cut downs, that means finding more S&W OEM 6900-series 10-rounders regardless of cost.

The Robertson cut downs probably work fine, but I'm going to stick with S&W OEMs if I can find enough of them.

Lets hope that never happens! but maura healey(MA Attorney general )can be a real moody feline!!!!!
I live in Taxachusetts as well and I have found some OEM 5900/6900 series magazines for sale on this site and on gunbroker. I have some OEM 5900-series 10-rounders that I found on Ebay. If you have some free time to surf the internet, then you will find some and for not a lot of $$ considering how they aren't made anymore by S&W.

Since I wrote that post 6 months ago, I've improved my worst case fallback position with a couple more OEM 6900-series 10-rounders. They certainly weren't cheap, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do. And while I'm not a fan of the Mec-Gar 5900-series 10-rounders, I added some of them as well. They don't cost a lot so what the heck.

The question, in our crazy moonbat state, is how much to hedge vs. how much to just sit back and wait, recognizing that Maura despises us, but most of her power of intimidation is over the dealers, not the individual licensed gun owners.

The truth is that the powers that be in our loony moonbat state kinda like things the way they are where fear and uncertainty are tools they can use against us. Eliminating the pre-ban exemption was a bridge too far for them last time around. It could stay that way for a long time to come... or it could be gone tomorrow like bump-stocks with a life-in-prison penalty for maximum intimidation.
