HaHa.
Giving away the ones that nobody would buy.
The 5903 is the only good one in that giveaway.

All three generations of Wonder 9s never left my armory. Model 59, Model 43, Model 669 and Model 3914

[...] Giving away the ones that nobody would buy. The 5903 is the only good one in that giveaway.

I have a 2nd gen and a 3rd gen. Lots of rounds through the 2nd gen, a 659. One of my favorite pistols. Great trigger, compares very favorably with a range of other 9mm pistols shooting-wise, though not suitable for CCW in my view (waaaaay too heavy and big/bulky). Extractor failed once and I was able to replace it easily.

Somewhere I read that the 3rd gen need to have replacement extractors fitted by someone with professional skill. I also enjoy that 3rd gen but it is much more of a safe queen.

I'd love to get a 5903 to enjoy in my dotage.

Still have my 8 shot model 39, and my more modern 3913 yeah boy.
