You got a good deal on a great pistol. Once you take it too the range and run it through it's paces you will see why. They carry great too. The only thing I did to mine was put a strip of grip tape on the frontstrap. The mags with the pinkey extension are nice too.

I'll second that. The 908 is a fine little carry gun. At $300 OTD you got a very good price, and from the picture it doesn't appear to have been abused at all.
yeah i know they are great gun... ive had a 6904 that i bought nib 20 some years ago....cant beat it... so ive been on the look out for 3913-3914-908..esp for carry.... found a 3914 last month for 385 out the door... then when i saw the 908 yesterday, the dealer was asking 349... we settled on 300 out the door...i thought that was a great deal for me... i about p*** my pants...
That's a great price on an excellent little gun. I paid just a little less for mine and it was not in near as nice of condition. I am confident I got a very good deal, so yours must have been a steal! I may have to report you to the authorities.

I liked my #908 far better than the #3913 I owned. If I ever run across a #908s, I will own it.
just curious as to why you like the 908 better?

Great price, I rarely see deals like that and even more rarely get to take advantage of them. Well done, sir!

"just curious as to why you like the 908 better?"
I actually liked the flat top slide on the 908 better than the rounded top of the 3913. The 908 was slimmer due to a single safety lever, and it felt lighter to me. I swapped the 3913 to a forum member in Florida for a Glock 17.
I had two S&W #908's, let my brother talk me out of the nicer one on the right.

I had to run down to the safe and check, and sure enough (based solely on feel) the 908 does feel a little lighter in the hand than the 3913/14. But I think that the unloaded specs are within 1oz of each other so it may just be my mind playing tricks on me. Of course I am in the process of swapping out all the plastic parts in my 908 for metal, so that oz is going to disappear.
i understand...i feel like the 908 is a little lighter also..."just curious as to why you like the 908 better?"

do you know of anybody that has switch the plastic guide rod for a metal one...
did you get a metal guiderod made for the 3913/3914 to fit the 908 and where did you get it.
I just ordered a metal guide rod, disconnector and a few other small parts from Numrich Gun Parts Corporation. And yes, they were all for the 3913/3914. I am going to leave the magazine catch assembly as is for now.

Picked up a 908 at the Greensboro gun show in January for the same price for my wife. Came with 3 mags and case. I got a metal guide rod from Midway USA. Seems like a great little gun. We are waiting for CT laser grips now. Grips are coming from John in Texas from here on the forum.
