I have a weird idea. 3914 slide on Model 39 frame.
Is it possible? I've heard that early Gen3 slides will fit on Gen2 frames, which are the same dimensions as Gen1 frames.
So theoretically, if I had an early Gen3 slide (one of the ones where "SMITH & WESSON" was on the end of the slide in front of the "MADE IN USA (etc)" markings...
It should fit, and function fine, right?
My S&W 39 is coming soon, and I already have a spare 3914 slide assembly. If possible, can somebody try it and see if it works?
(I know to remove the firing pin safety for Gen1 compatibility.)
