Re: S&W 6906 Range Report
You could own this one in .40 for $400.00 with only 800 rounds thru her :D You are right these guns are gems and can be had at a great price!!

Re: S&W 6906 Range Report
Glad ya enjoy it. Welcome to one of the best made guns IMHO. If ya really like it try one in 45 or 10mm. Ya there a bit heavy to carry but nothing better for a range toy. They can get addicting.
Re: S&W 6906 Range Report
The 6906 is my favorite EDC gun. :cool:
FYI:
If you want an IWB holster for your 6906, order a Crossbreed SuperTuck that is marked for "S&W 5906, Mod 39, 3913, etc.". This holster fits the 6906 with either squared, or rounded trigger guard.
Re: S&W 6906 Range Report
Very nice. I like these old Smiths alot.
Get'em while theyre hot too. These trade ins arent gonna be around forever. Especially at the prices they are going for.
OP, does yours have any DOC markings on it?

It has " AOxxx " on all of them laser engraved on frame, slide and barrel which the seller says is:
"Note the neatly executed laser CDC Prefix identification numbers on the right side of the slide"
I checked it out and Ca. Dept. of Corrections did engrave all 6906's with the AOXXX laser engraving on the slides, frame and barrel. On other guns they engraved CDCxxx, not sure why they used different markings ?
Re: S&W 6906 Range Report
Thanks for the holster info. boots.
I have been told that the mec-gar 15 round mags will fit flush, and are the best besides S&W originals. Does anyone know if the mec-gar 17 round mags fit flush? I see them advertised saying they fit the 6906 but not sure if they fit flush ???
Re: S&W 6906 Range Report
Got a 59, a 659, and a 5906. All very good 9mm's. Why Smith&Wesson quit making them, I don't know... I guess everyone wants to be made out of plastic and look like a Glock.
Re: S&W 6906 Range Report
Some of the most under rated guns out there. I got my first 3rd gen S&W last year. A 1066, it was also my first 10mm. I only wish it had not taken me this long to try them out. Since then I picked up a 559, 908 and 3904. All four of them have been flawless so far.
Congrats!
Re: S&W 6906 Range Report
I EDC'd a custom hybrid 5903/6906 for about a decade. Great weapon.
(3rd Gen Smiths are also safety laden with a drop safety, manual safety and magazine safety combined with a DA trigger).

With the full sized grip it took 17rd mecgar or 18rd ramline magazines flush. Mine was mag-na-ported with night sights, and had an action job.
I still miss that gun. I traded it for my HK P7 a couple years ago.
