Looking to pick up a few. Numrich lists the same part of the 3913,3953,3953TSW, 6946, 5946, and 5906. Part number 923810, .530” long. They all take the same firing pin?

Smith and Wesson's part number is 10636. (and, 27313)

(I believe the number you referred to is a Numrich number)

Yes, the model numbers you list above appear to use the same firing pin. The measurement they refer to, .530", is the "center shank" of the firing pin. This center shank is a different length for the 2nd and 3rd gen models.....2nd gen shank is approx. .390" in length, and, consequently, they (the 2nd/3rd gen) use different length firing pin springs.

Thanks. Reason I’m asking is I got a new 3913 yesterday and like I always do, and have done dozens of times with used 3rd gen’s, I removed the safety drum to replace the firing pin spring and clean the channel.

When putting it back, I slid it in from the wrong side and it got totally locked up. Only way to get it out was to gently grab the end of the firing pin that was sticking out of the hole and pull it forward to pull the safety drum out. Came out and properly reassembled and it seems fine. But now I have snagging feeling I screwed up the firing pin.
