Default Which is a better deal/gun?

If you had the choice of buying a CS40 or a 3913 LS which would you choose and why?

I would probably choose the CS40 but only because I already have a 3913. Actually I am looking for a CS9 every time I go to a LGS.

I would choose the 3913 LS, as I have no love for the 40 S&W. Just my personal preference.

I vote for CS40, because I love my CS9D, and my M&P 40.

Depends on what your intentions are, if its concealed carry and the prices are equal, I would go with the 3913. I do like the .40 S&W, but the CS40 is rather bulky, I have a CS45 and they are the same size. If I'm going to carry a .40 it will be my 4013TSW. The 3913LS will have a better resale if needed.

Does anyone know of a shop that will install 3rd gen S&W sights?
I have a set of Trijicons and no luck with sight pusher availability or local gunsmith to tackle it.
Thanks, Brian

A 3913 LS is a fantastic shooter/carry piece. I prefer one of my CS9s to carry, but the LS fits the bill . . . and is more fun to shoot!

Brian, where in IN are you. I've had no problem getting sights put on 3rd generation guns here in Louisville.
