What is a transitional model? I'm still learning about the 39's history
Ser # is A1640xx
It's an early 39-2 with some features of the model 39, such as the hole in the hammer, and the non relieved front strap, just above the magwell. The magazine baseplates are longer on the model 39 and early 39-2 (transitional).
And mine, a 5906 Target Champion 5"![]()
^^^^^ Heck with that, I want to know where kitty was hiding all that stuff before the TSA took it away at the airport!![]()
