I have run out of space in my gun safe, and have decided to sell some of my 3rd gens. I will be updating this post as I decide what to sell and take photos of them.

Smith & Wesson Model 3914 & 3 OEM 8-round magazines $600

I have for sale a model 3914, a 9mm compact single-stack 3rd generation Smith & Wesson pistol. This pistol has an aluminum-alloy frame and a steel slide. The manual-of-arms is TDA (DA/SA) with slide mounted safety/decocker. This has an ambidextrous decocker lever, a low-profile slide release lever, iron anti-snag Novak style sights, a bobbed hammer, and Hogue comfort grips. I will include 3 OEM 8-round magazines, 1 with a flat baseplate (reduced profile for carry), and two with a finger rest. If you don't want the magazines, I'll reduce the price $50 for each one you don't want.

The slide is in very good condition, with only some surface pitting in the blueing on the top of the slide, and some minor holster wear. The frame is in excellent condition, with only a little shininess in places from holster wear (not all the way through the finish though). The internals are in excellent condition, and the rifling is sharp and clean. I have put ~100 rounds through it at the range, and it shoots true without any malfunctions.

As many here are aware, the S&W 3rd gen pistols (made from ~1988-2010) are great shooters, with excellent triggers; the DA pull is smooth, and the SA has a crispness and reset that rivals or betters aftermarket triggers on other pistols. The compact single-stack 3rd gens (3913, 3914, 3953, 908) were highly popular as carry guns. The aluminum alloy makes for a stiffer, stronger frame than plastic guns, with only a minor weight difference (this one weighs 2 ounces more than an equivalently sized M&P Shield).

$600 for the pistol and 3 magazines
(less $50 for each mag you don't want)

Photographs of the 3914. The interior photograph was taken separately from the others, after I realized I was missing pics of the internals. I'd just cleaned and greased it after taking it to the range, hence the wet look.
