i too bought a 39-2 today at the lgs at which i work . it was made in 1977, no box but two mags. my prioce is 200.00 so i couldnt resist. i carried one as a off duty weapon at about that time and always like it.
i cleaned it and it camed out nice.
however i need info on spare mags for it. they dont have to be 39 mags but are there any deal out there on 3904 3906 etc mags. smith lists them for 41.00 i would like to beat that if possible.

I have 3 model 39-2's from the early/mid 1970's. I mostly use Promags from Midway and have had no problems with them. They are well made and made in USA. I think they are around $20.00. I did buy some S&W original factory mags on Gunbroker and Ebay but they were all around $40. I don't think you'll find them much cheaper as they are becoming scarce.
