There is no question about it, the Model 39 and the Model 952 are my favorite 9mm pistols. One of the stupidest things I ever did was sell my original 39-2, it took me almost 20 years to reacquire one. An old friend of mine had told me about his newest acquisition several years ago, it was a Model 952. He advised me to never hold one in my hand because I would not let it down. Shortly after that I was handed a black rug from the Performance Center, it was a dealer sample of 952; he was right, I could not put it down. It is one of the most accurate pistols I own, it is a toss up between my 52 and the 952 as to which is most accurate.
