By the way, gun looked to be in near excellent shape. Price $425 which included a Galco Cop holster (used).

Thanks,

I had a 6906 great gun, you could probably use it as a hammer and it'd still shoot !!
Sold it for $450 a few monts ago just to clear out some guns...safe was FULL

I bought a LNIB 6906 last fall for $400 OTD. I picked got some of the S&W extensions for the 5906 mags and can now carry 15 rounds.in about the same size package.

I used and carried the 6906 for several years. Still have some of the holsters that I used and wish they could be used with my current weapons. Anyhow, the gun is a great gun, and kind of sorry that I ever got rid of it. The only reason I would not seek out another one is that they do not have a rail for tactical lighting and lasers. Other than that, I would highly recommend the handgun. Good luck with your purchase, but I think the price is a little high with all the newer techie pieces on the market, I would expect them to be a little more reasonably priced.
