A friend of mine just bought a nickel Model 39-2 in mint condition. It only came with one magazine and he wants to purchase a couple more. Obviously, the original 8-round single stack is hard to find (no longer made). I contacted S&W and they informed me that a current 9-round magazine (#20075) would work and only protrude slightly from the well. Have any of you went this route, and if so, any problems?
