hooked on 3rd gen smiths!
so I bought my first 3rd gen smith, a 3953, back in January. I have been debating and saving up for another purchase, and was leaning towards a .22lr - likely a 422/622/2206. However, I ran across a blued cs9 on an auction site and couldn't seem to help myself. got it for $395 - with box, 2 mags, plus shipping and ffl.
How'd I do? - thinking it was prolly a decent purchase?
Thanks

I haven't priced on of those but you probably did well.
I am also hooked on older smiths. I started a month ago and have purchased 3 semi autos and 3 revolvers to go with the one revolver I already had. And I'm looking to add a couple more soon (next week). When I get some pics taken I'll post them. I sold my polymer framed pistols so I could fund the new aquisitions and I don't regret it one bit.
I'm a firm believer you can't have too many S&Ws on hand.

New grips and that gun looks like new. Money well spent.

Get used to it. There seems to be no cure for your addiction and you will get no sympathy from the rest of us addicts here.

You did very well. I have been looking for a CS9 for a very long time without any success. I will keep looking.

Thanks for the replies - I have been looking for a cs9 for a little while now (ran across 2 cs40s in the process!), so thought that it was in good shape for a good price.

Fellow addicts. In the last year, I have purchased seven (7) 3rd Gens. They are addictive. I love their strength, simplicity and modularity.
Here are some of my 3rd Gens.
Missing are my two 4003TSWs. I have 3rd Gens is 9mm, .40 and .45 ACP.
Once you get started...
