I know theres going to be alot of opionions on this one but, just want to see what the majority would do. Heres the dilemma, have recently fallen in love ( with out my wife knowing) with 3rd gen smiths. I want in the worst way a 3913ls if can ever find or afford not neccasarily in that order, or have the option of getting a cs40 in box and almost new right now. Should I grab the cs and save up cash and hopefully find a 3919 before there price skyrockets any more, or just holdout? PLEASE HELP!!

It is up to you. Hope your wife don't kill you.

My opinion, whatever one you find first is the one to get. Both of them are far and few between. I'm not a big lover of the 3913LS or NL, but I do have them. I prefer the standard 3913 with ambi safety. As for the CS40 you don't see them very often, again I prefer my 4013TSW over my CS40.

In the mean time, borrow or rent everything you can so you know the good, bad and ugly of them all. Sometimes what you seen on the screen does not translate in your hand. That being said, my 3914LS was one of the best slim 9mm's ever made. My CS9 was just okay. I don't have much love for the .40's.

Hey Thanks alot guys for all your input! It was def. worth asking, sometimes you just need the voice of knowledge or reason, or both!
Being new to this site it is def. alot of knowledge and good people. TWO THUMBS UP!!!

So will have to save up and 3913 LS or NL is next!

Yes, you should grab a 3919
