I recently posted photos of my Big Boys and, since I picked up my 3913TSW on Friday, I thought I would post photos of it and my other "Compact Kids." So, here they are:





The Compact Kids: 3913 (1992), 3913 (1996), 3913TSW, 4013, 4014, 4516-1 and 4516-2.

Nice collection of compact S&Ws..

My preowned 3913 has external character marks but sure is accurate.

I took the little 3913TSW out to the range to day. It looks like it shoots Win 115gr a hair to the left and Fed AE 124gr less than a hair to the right. So, since I shoot both loads regularly, the sights are good to go as is. By the way, it's a real sweet shooter.

Is the 3913TSW a 7 shot 9mm??
Will 3913 mags work in it but hang out slightly?
How does it fit your hands compaired to the Standard 3913?
I bet a 3913 Hogue could be cut to work with the TSW..
Thanks for the Pics
Great Looking Pistols you have there

Yes, the 3913TSW "Tactical" pre-rail made from 1997-99 is a seven shot. The 3913TSW "9 Tactical Smith & Wesson" made after '99 is an eight shot pistol.

Yes.

I'm 6'5" tall with good sized hands. Nonetheless, I've never had trouble with small pistols. I like both my 3913s, they feel good to me. I was surprised today when I shot the TSW. It was very comfortable to shoot. With the seven round magazine, it provides enough room for a good solid grip with my middle and ring finger. My little finger fits right under the magazine base. After all, it's only a 9mm. In 40S&W or .45 ACP, I might not like it as much.

I picked up a 1991 3913NL last weekend & it came with one 7 round magazine with what looks like a M39 floorplate, it fits flush at the bottom, & would be almost exactly the same size as your TSW with the plastic flat bottom..
Congrats on your TSW & Good Shooting Too!!
