New to forum, new Smith & Wesson

[timn8er]

The curved grip, part # 203540000, shows to be in stock at Brownell's for$18.90. The straight grip, part # 203610000, is the same price but is on back order. Midway didn't have either one. Both grips fit multiple 3rd Gens.

What is the difference between the 915 and the 439?

439 is the older single stack 9mm

Nice gun. As far as carrying it concealed, it depends on a lot of factors. If the weather co-operates (meaning there's a chill in the air) I can carry my 6906, which is just a little shorter in the barrel and grip than your 915.
In my not-so-humble opinion, the 915 is about as good a house gun as can be found. it's easy to shoot well.
welcome to the forum, BTW.

I also Welcome you to the Forum from Canada as well Snap. You have a nice pistol there. I hope you enjoy it for many years to come as well. A 9mm is a nice pistol to carry for the size and weight of it and will do a good job if needed.
