S&W 669 9mm

[DeafSmith]

Well at a pawn shop they have a pretty good condition S&W 669 9mm. He offered $400 OTD.. but I'm rather broke now... oh well..

Looks like this:



Say how accurate was these guns? I have the 3913, 3914, and a 6906 but not the earlier 669.

I presume it uses the same mags as the 6906.

Thanks.

I've had two 469s over the years, and they've both shot and handled great!

I've got one in my current EDC rotation. Love it!

I have a 469, apparently never issued surplus for the Illinois State Police which I have had for years. I have found it to be a fine weapon.

My 669 came with the appropriate 2nd gen magazines but your 3rd gen 6906 mags work just fine. That's a really decent price and it would be a nice introduction to 2nd gen guns. You'll likely prefer the grip and sights of the 6906 but a lot can be said about that "old school cool" factor of the 669.
Mine had been machined for Novak night sights and likes the 59 series magazines with the PGS adapter.

Accuracy will vary from one firearm to the next, but the 469/669 introduced the fixed barrel bushing in S&W pistols. As such, they tended to be more accurate than many of the 39/x39 and 59/x59 pistols with the removable barrel bushing. I would expect the average 469 or 669 to be as accurate as the average 6904 or 6906.

My 669 is my CC gun in summer, and a 915 in winter. Fine weapons and certainly more accurate that I am. ULTIMATELY dependable. That's what is important to me. Never had a failure (knocking on wood desk)!
