My new 3913

[doctorj357]

I was searching for a carry 9mm. Stopped in my local gunshop and was looking over the Kel-tec PF-9. After seeing it in person, decided not my cup of tea. But the price was attractive at $280. And that was about my limit to spend. As I looked into the used case, I noticed this little S&W 3913 for $300. I fell in love with the feel of it as soon as I picked it up. I'm a 1911 person and there are certain comforts on the 3913 that remind me of a 1911. Just my opinion anyway. Barrel is in good shape, and over all it was in nice condition. Grips are a little chewed, but no biggie. But I did decide to order a new set from Midway. Came with only 1 factory mag. I also had a $20 visa gift card, so knocked the price down a touch, after tax, I got it for $297.

E-mail me at [email protected]. I have somewhere? a extra mag for a 3913 you can have.....I will have to look in gun stuff but I know it is around here, If you send me your address I will send it no charge when I find it....Enjoy you have one of the best CCW guns made IMHO ( I think it has the finger hook plate on it...???)

Seriously? That would be awesome. I was kind of shocked when the cheapest factory mag I could find was about $30. Guess I'm too used to buying old GI 1911 mags.

Heck ya I'm interested. I'll shoot you an email right away for it. Thank you, I really appreciate this.

..........Now why can't guys on the Colt forums send me offers like this.....

You can go shopping for me anytime, I don't find those deals in gunshops.
They are a good carry piece.

I stumbled across my 3913 of all places Gander Mountain. A trade-in the day before and just placed in the case before I spotted it for $330.00 and two mags. Congratulations on the find. I have yet to see a 3913 in any of the local or nearby gun stores.

Congrats! Picked up one last week for $350 OTD. It came with box and 3 mags and the magazine disconnect reversed so it could fire w/out the mag. That's her on top my newly acquired 6906.

Very nice 3913 at a very nice price.BTW I had a guy asking about original grips for his version 1 Detective Special.I told him to send me a PM with his snail mail address because I would send them to him without charge because mine was a version 2.He never got back to me so his loss.This was on the Colt Forum.The thing about +Karma is you have to let it in and I am glad to see you did.BTW I think I have a 3913 mag too so PM me....Enjoy and God Bless.....Mike

Great find, guys!! I sure hope my patience will pay off with a find like that....one of these days......

You got a great deal on one of the best compact 9mm's made. It is in pretty good shape too. Enjoy your 3913.

 

[Scotter260]

The only issue I see are the grips, otherwise it appears to be in excellent condition. Congratulations! If you like it now, wait until you get to the range.

 

[mlk18]

Worth every penny! And then some. You have yourself one of the finest autos ever made. Congrats.

Great price on an all metal compact , and it's a S&W too.

 

[wbwanzer]

Nice catch. Hope you enjoy it.

They are a good carry piece. Sadly, don't have that capbilty yet in Illinois.... yet..

Enjoy the gun.

Great timing. I'm in the market for a carry gun, and a local store just got in a 3913. I really liked it, and it's similar enough to my 4566 that I would feel very comfortable carrying this gun, right out of the box.

Mine is $350.00 with an extra mag.

Thanks for posting all the positive comments.

Yeah, Long Island (NY) is like that too. But ... I'm proactively buying, in lieu of what I'm hoping will be a positive McDonald decision. Searching for good karma and all.

 

[goldenlight]

You did extremely well on that purchase!

I have been looking for a nice 3913 like yours...and at the price you paid. I'm still looking, too.

Congratulations!

3913 - I like mine too

Bought it a couple of weeks ago, never fired, one owner, box, extra mag, manual, even blank warranty card for 340.00 Called S & W, built in 98 which is when the guy said he bought it new. Goes well with my 5906. Now looking for 5906 spur hammer for it. S & W wants about 50.00. Shoots very well. Enjoy yours!
