I can't disagree with a thing you said. If it's supposed to be "the new CS9" then they missed the mark.
Smith & Wesson CSX?

It reminds me a lot of my
CZ P–07, which is the pistol that got me into Hammer fired instead of Striker Fired, and I never turn back.

Looks like an uglier, plastic version of a Sig P938 to be honest.

This might be good for someone who wants a 1911 that doesn't look or feel like a 1911. It'll be interesting to see what the price will be on the CSX.
Still is. Although I miss the C&O/Chessie System with its kitten.
CSX locomotives are almost as boring looking as Norfolk Southern locomotives.
why S&W would pick this as the name is beyond me. I have/had a CS9, and a SAO just makes me scratch my head.
So we're going to have a Chiefs Special X (10)?

A Smith & Wesson version of the CZ P-07 with a M&P grip would be fine with me, but that'll never happen. My 5906 is nearly the perfect pistol except for the weight.
I don't care about all that, I like it. I want one. Yep. Maybe two. 
They will sell a ton of these.
The fact that it doesn't have a rail is a plus to me.

SAO or DA/SA? As a Sig fan, I can tell you which one I would prefer. In either case I can't see the purpose of the trigger dongle. I also find it odd that it does not have scalloped slide serrations and other design elements of the M&P series.
Seems like a good idea.
There are a lot of people who love M&P pistol but still look for 1911 shooting comfort.
I'm patiently waiting for official info with full specs.
I'm wondering how it would be, or not, better than M&P M2.0 with Apex set in place.

A brief search and I found 183 trademark applications on file for "CSX" from a horde of different entities.
As to the new "CSX" pistol... Could not possibly care less. If they had made the thing TDA perhaps in a single stack, I may have been modestly interested... But then that would have been a 3914 would it not?
There is one thing I do find attractive about it though... They chose not to put a bloody pic rail on it

Well, it would be a 3914 if the slide is made of carbon steel, but a 3913 Melonite if it's a Nitrided stainless slide. Or whatever name Smith has come up with the process now that they do it themselves. 
Other than that, I completely agree with your comments. I might look at it if it was TDA with either a slide mounted or frame mounted SINGLE SIDE decocker.
The maddening thing is that they made the best TDA compact sized 9mm semi auto, but stopped so that they could make a plastic frame gun to compete with Glock.
Other than that, I have no strong opinions on the topic!

I got the chance to see one of these yesterday and play with it a little. My first thought was they fit a lot of rounds in a small gun. 2nd thought was it’s pretty much a Sig 938 with more rounds. The trigger was nice.

It’s more like a Sig 938 just not as pretty but more rounds. Trigger is good.
