    NOT "wtb/wtt" yet, but...

    I want good/bad/neutral advice about any 9mm Smith & Wesson (Mod 56, I believe) that any of you members may have. I have a choice of a few, and have never owned any S&W pistol. I'd appreciate all advice and hints what to look for. My mind is made up on S&W, so don't try swaying me to another model, please!! Not right now. Do you have one for sale? LeoL.

    I think you may be refering to the Model 59, double column 14 shot 9mm pistol.

    *** In comparing the virtues of various calibers, using hollow point ammo: it is absolutely undeniable that, while a 9 mm or .40 S&W may or may not expand, a .45 will never shrink. ***

      The model 39/59 was the original Smith 9mm. They have a reputation for problems but the replacement pistol 439/459 were good pistols. I had a 459 that I purchased new in the 80s that was a great pistol.
      Check back later for a witty comment.
