Smile Great looker and shooter

That should make for a good carry piece and great shooting weapon as well.

I just found one at Cabela's in excellent condition. The price is $599 which I think is too high. What did you pay for yours? Thanks, TC.

I gave $450 out the door. I thought that was a fair price given the condition of the pistol and the extra magazines.

Default 3rd Gen 9s

I've been watching these guns for some time now and I think they're under valued. Especially the 9MMs. If you keep your eyes open, you'll be able to find one for less than $400 that's in great shape. One of the Forum members posted a link the other night for a 3913 in TX for less than 400 (think it was $369). Naturally, it was off the site by the next day. Patience is a virtue - but be ready to pounce when that moment arrives.
Good hunting!
Bill

The finest CCW gun made by anyone! Highly recommended by myself and many others. Enjoy the heck out of yours, you will find it to be totally reliable and quite accurate as well.

Great guns! I used to have one back in the late 80's that I carried in a Milt Sparks #55BN straight cant holster.
Using Federal 9mmBP I was able to shoot more than one 1" 5-shot 25 yard group (when my eyes were decent!) and in I'd say pushing 2,000 rounds I never had a malfunction. Awsome...

Back in the early Nineties I had access to Federal 9BPLE at a really good price and used it in a 3913 for our club's "Falling Plates" matches. The pistol and ammunition combination allowed me to make "Master" classification, despite drawing from a concealment-oriented holster. As others have said, you can't go wrong with a 3913...

As most of you know the 3913 is much loved around here. $450 is the going rate right now. The fours mags with it is even better! Nice find on one of the best 9mm carry guns every made.

Nice buy at a resonable price especially with 4 mags. You will enjoy shooting it. The 3913 is one of my favorite pistols.

That's a good price on a great little CCW piece, especially with 4 mags. Enjoy!

Good looking pistol. My daughter has one, and now I am in the process of getting a 908 for myself to carry.

3913 has to be the best compact 9mm ever made.

No arguement from me. My 3914 is my constant and daily companion, even though I am not a 9mm fan. It shoots to point of aim, handles perfectly, carries easily, and is perhaps the most reliable auto I have ever owned.....so I carry it regardless of the modest power of the cartridge. When you can shoot anything reliably and accurately, that in itself negates the importance of caliber requirement.
