Very nice, congrats!
I had to make my own, from a 5906 frame, and a 3914 upper. Great looking well balanced pistol. Enjoy yours!..........you are going to shoot it aren't you?? Regards 18DAI.

I'm not a collector, I'm a shooter. I don't have any safe queens or guns that are sitting in the safe for posterity. So, yes, it will be shot eventually.

Wow! Eye candy indeed. I have never been a fan of two-tones, but this an exception

That, a 4596 and a 5903 SSV and I would be the Happiest S&W Owner ever. I can't imagine owning all three, but there would be no more Grail for me......Beautiful pistol......Zebulon

Okay, I did it this afternoon. I put the 3914 slide on the 5903 frame. ALSO put the 5903 slide on the 3914 frame. Both slides rack smoothly. I think the 5903 w/ the now shorter side would make a great car gun. The duo-tone look is nice on both.

Yes, however I put the combination together myself. The original posters photos are gone. I have a few below. Ignore that cheap laser on the full-sized gun.
It shoots extremely well, and carries well too. Not much larger than a 3913 but much more capacity and better grip. I've got a Crimson Trace lasergip on mine now.
It's available if anyone is interested.
