It’s almost where all the wondernines started…Nice historical gun…shoots up a storm.
Thx bro
Mine has a great trigger on it for a old gun
Looks like a compact Browning Hi Power knock off.
Damn son your trigger control is garbage!
This is one of my most sought after guns, id give my left nutt for one. : /
Bought one of these in 1992 for $200. Unfortunately, it was stolen in 1993. Loved it the short time I had it
Also my first semi-auto in 1977 – purchase price brand new 169.50 , at a department store sporting goods counter , box, papers , 2 magazines , 2 boxes of 9’s . All for under 200.00 , Those were the days ( yes I still have it , )
One of most great gun
They Don’t make guns like that anymore. Unfortunately.
my dad bought a new one in 1980. it’s still his all around go to gun. it’s always been a shooter.
I have one and i shoot it, the reset is nice, just wish the decocker was reversed.
Chulada de fierro!❤️
Still have one in great shape use it at my security job. Young guys laugh but still "old Roscoe" gets compliments for an old school pistol.
I have had the same exact gun for 20 years and like it a lot,bought it used and shoots good.One thing though,when the final shot is fired,the slide doesn’t hold itself open just slides forward as though ready to fire another shot,can anyone tell me what’s wrong and why it does that?
I’ve had mine for many years, bought it new in 1973. It came with 2- 8 round mags and I’d purchased one more since. Midway USA had magazines for it in stock awhile back. The only time I’d ever had a problem with it was when I bought a box of reloads at a range I’d visited, other than that never another problem since but I only use new ammo. It was my favorite handgun until Glock came along. The 39-2 will be with me until I die, will never part with it.
You sure show off a lot of fine pieces of art! Lot of uniqueness shared with us… thanks for that… very enjoyable seeing some classic pieces!
Nice vintage S&W 9mm 1957Shep looks like a great shooter too.
This gun is in aliens 1986 And is used by private Jennette Vasquez in the final battle and to threaten Gorman
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater brought me here
Very classic handgun!
nice one
I carried a Model 39 for several years back in the late 70s and early 80s. I decided I needed a more powerful round, so I traded the Model 39 in on a Colt .45. Both were top notch pistols.
My grail. Prohibited in Canada though :'(
Is the 539 good?
Hi, I know that the Model 39 is about 7.6" long and about 5.1" high. How wide is it? Could you help? Thanks
Hey 1957Shep, nice video of a cool gun. Thanks!
Great pistol…I wish they bring ’em back!
I don’t know who has the better mess of Smiths you or HrntFixr But I want to shoot them all 🙂
The Smith & Wesson model 39 is a great classic gun. It was the Navy SEALS’ silenced pistol in Vietnam.
How do I break one down to clean.
Please help me! I inherited s 39-2. I watched a couple vids. I pulled the barrel back and forgot to remove the magazine. I now have 2 bullets in the chamber. It’s pulled back and can’t access hammer I can see the bullets and safety is on but won’t close. What do I do,? I don’t want to discharge by firing please. Help! Asap 3/91/19. Magazine is open. I see the 2 bullets. Can’t grab trigger. I can send a picture. Not sure what the side opening is called. It is open .
I love this gun. Use mine very often and it runs amazing! Thanks for sharing!
nice and accurate?
what is that slim bar in teh groove by the ejection port for ?
Does it help line up the slide?
I have mine from back in the early 70s. Great gun, very reliable and I went on to get a Model 59. Glad I kept them both
I wish they would start making this model again. Keep it like it was.
I got 2 of these one in nickel plated my dad gave me before he past away. Love that gun!
It was always hard to tell what pistol it was in the movie sounded like a 45 but I always thought it was a Berretta 92cheetah 9mm hmmmm screen used I doubt it lmao
How do you break one down to clean it
I bought one of these brand new and I loved it! Unfortunately I had to sell it. Wouldn’t mind having another one.
yo tengo la misma y es una chulada saludos desde cdmx
Nice handgun… I’m having it for years… Never disappoint me
Just curious why you take your finger of the trigger every time you shoot?
Just got a 439 like new in box for $300 old school with round trigger guard and ambi safety. My buddy has a no dash nickel model 36 in great shape as well and is looking to trade. What you guys think?
What type of ammo did you use in this demonstration? Hollow points, etc?
I own one of these. I have those grips but I replaced them with genuine smith & wesson black pearl grips. My favorite gun I’ve owned so far
This was my first pistol. Barely any recoil. 🙌🏿
S&W were so impressed with the Walther 9 was the motivation behind their build.I owned one in 84 and now wish I’d never parted with it.
Excellent shooting and a great memory for me Shep, many thanks
Mine has some rust on it anyone know how much to get it restored ?
MK22 Hush Puppy first side arm issued to the Navy Seal’s.
Should have known you’d have a Model 39, Shep. Was reading today how it was the first commercially available 9 mm double-action auto pistol in America. Before that the only way to get one that functioned like that was to buy some veteran’s Walther P 38 bring-back. I had heard/read about them before, but have developed a new respect and admiration for these pistols. Glad you got to give that one a good workout.
