Just purchased a S&W 669 in very nice condition. I hadnt really been looking for one, but I have always liked these guns since a friend carried one as a duty gun back in the late 80s.
I like the TDA type double action and the decocker/safety on the Smith guns. When I rediscovered the 669 with all that combined with a light alloy frame and 13 round capacity -- I had to get it.
I took it to the range yesterday and fired 100 rounds with not a single problem and remarkable accuracy.
A few questions that I cant seem to find answers for:
How different are the 669 and 6906? Will holsters necessarily interchange? I have a squared trigger guard with the serrated front surface.
If I ever have a problem -- does SW honor the lifetime repair policy for subsequent owners?
I have sent away for the manual, but in the meantime -- how do you field strip this thing?
Anyone try the 15 round Ramline mags for the 669 -- as seen on Gunbroker.com?
The front sight seems to be a part of the slide. Does that mean night sights are not possible?
Anything else I need to know as a new S&W Auto owner?
Sorry for so many questions. Thanks in advance.
