    Recently Picked Up a Model 3913

    Little off topic, but I picked up a CS 9 6-8 years ago kind of by accident. It became my favorite handgun and has been my daily ever since. I have been told it is very similar to the 3913, but I have never really asked or done a comparison of similarities and differences. Can y’all educate...

    Bump - still looking for info Still looking for info on a hybrid IWB holster that fits the CS9. Anyone know what current easily available S&W Model kydex pocket fits the CS9? Some have said the 3913 but no one has confirmed they have tried it and it works. Any info appreciated.

    CS 9 Recoil Spring - Is this correct???

    While I am asking questions - What is the name and part # for the part on the right in this picture? It goes inside the recoil spring and has a plastic tip on the end. I think this is basically the only plastic part on the gun (other than in the magazine) and is something else to have on hand...

    CS 9 Recoil Spring - Is this correct???

    Based on the advice of this forum I ordered new recoil spring for my CS9. I ordered from midway using correct part# (again from this forums info) - Below is a picture of the spring I received. It is significantly longer than the old one it is replacing so I was afraid they sent me the wrong...

    CS 9 Failure to Fire?

    I love my CS 9 and has been my daily for several years, but I occasionally get a FTF at the range. Always a feed issue. I have learned that theCS 9 likes to be clean and hates to be dry. My issues are always when it has been neglected and not at least oiled recently. From what I have read...

    New CS45 - S&W Snorted At Me.

    Probably in here somewhere but can't find it... Can someone post the part # for the springs for the CS9, CS40, & CS45? What was the final verdict on getting them from S&W? Is it just the CS 9 that they still offer if you are willing to wait? On a side note - what other parts should we stock up...

    CS 9 Holster Compatibility?

    I love my CS 9 for all the reasons we all know - only problem is finding holsters and other accessories due to it's relative scarcity. I like the IWB hybrid (KYDEX) type holsters but few manufacturers list the CS 9 as an option. I have heard that you can use a 3913 which is a little easier to...

    CS-9 Sights

    Have a CS-9 that gets carried daily and the "dots" are worn off. I assume you can paint them back on? If so is there a special paint? Also interested in any aftermarket sights available for it - any suggestions there? As always thanks for any info.

    "Sighting In" Distance for CC Self Defense

    So I think 2hawk answered the question. Sight in at 25 yards because the POI at 5 to 7 yards will still be accurate?
