This Smith & Wesson Model 915 is a full-size, Third-Generation Value Series 9mm produced in the early 1990s with a short production run before the Model 910. It pairs a carbon-steel slide with an aluminum-alloy frame for balanced weight and durability, and it comes well-outfitted with multiple magazines and original S&W accessories. Fixed 3-dot sights, a DA/SA action with a slide-mounted safety/decocker, and proven 59-series magazine compatibility make this example a practical, collector-friendly pistol from Smith & Wesson’s respected 90s lineup.

The Model 915 is part of Smith & Wesson’s Third-Generation Value Series, offering simplified features within the proven 59-series pattern. This example reflects that lineage with 59-series double-stack magazine compatibility and the frame marking "Mod 915." Its short production window circa 1992–1994 and succession by the Model 910 in 1995 add context and interest for buyers looking for a well-defined 1990s S&W variant.
Construction is carbon-steel slide over an aluminum-alloy frame with a matte blue/black finish. The 4 in barrel, approximately 7.5 in overall length, and about 28.5 oz unloaded weight deliver a full-size format with manageable carry weight and balanced handling.
Operation is recoil-operated DA/SA with a slide-mounted safety/decocker. A spur hammer, external extractor, and rear slide serrations round out the Third-Generation control layout and handling features.
Sights are fixed 3-dot: an integral ramped front with a white dot and a fixed rear with two white dots. The grip is a one-piece black wraparound synthetic panel with S&W medallion, providing a secure, consistent hold.
Chambered in 9mm Luger, the pistol is configured for a 17+1 capacity and uses the widely supported S&W 59-series double-stack magazine pattern. This listing includes four 17-round magazines and one 10-round magazine to cover both range and capacity-restricted needs.
