That's an easy one, PC952, no question about it.

Ok,
Besides the 952 and the TSW3566..................
By order of accuracy;
39-2, 5906, 3906, (3913NL and 6906), both are about the same.

Hey Pete, the 4566 is not a 9 m.m.

My 5946 and 3914 are both boringly accurate. I like shooting the 5946 more because of its larger grip, but the 3914 is a much better carry gun.

3913 for myself, also. Tremendous 'reverse snob appeal' at matches. It enabled my to put a few trophies on the shelf and ribbons on the wall - I like the kind that say 'first' the best...

Bad Man One - Right! You know, I can shoot real good, just can't read too well!

S&W Model 639, the most accurate pistol I've owned in any caliber. I have a Sigma 9VE which is a fire for effect handgun, that is, atleast one of the 17 rounds should hit a target at 50, if not it should get the BG's head down so I can run.

I'm in the 915 camp.

Love that gun!

I would say my 5906 that has a competition trigger job from Cylinder&Slide and a 5" Performance barrel from Wesman. This thing outshoots me every time.

Model 639 the thing shoots like a laser and looks really good doing it.

Both my 3913LS and 908s. They both drive tacks with 147gr Fed. hydra-shoks.

My 3913 and then the 5946.

My first 9mm was a SW 659. I 'upgraded' to 3913 so my wife could have a carry gun - turns out she never carries so I plan to carry it myself, when my CPL permit finally comes in (hopefully before the end of January). It's got everything like a LadySmith but doesn't say LadySmith on the slide, so I can still feel like a man carrying it!

Anyway I noticed that it seems to print to the left and down from where I aim - it's quite possibly (even probably) 'operator' error, as I'm certainly no expert. The sights are not adjustable, as far as I can tell. Has anyone else had this problem and is there anything I can do to correct it (other than practice, if it's really my own fault?)??

Okay, my 3913NL is a fine shooting machine for a relatively short-barreled short sight radius 9mm. But is isn't as accurate as my Walther PPS. Sorry. I wish it wasn't true. Frankly, my Beretta 90-two is pretty accurate also, a bit for massive for everyday carry though.

The 3913NL is one fine piece of S&W work. Everything you hear about them is true. If you can't find one, and need to get a gun now...get one, but don't stop looking for a good 3913...you won't regret it.

I love all the talk about bullet-jump affecting accuracy, when my S&W 686+ relolver will outshoot them all. Talk about bullet-jump!

To see if it's your form affecting POI vs. POA, use a rest and squeeeeeze the trigger. 10 shots minimum. Don't fall for that 3 shot group or 5 shot group crap. Then at the same distance try it with a two hand hold. Again...squeeeeeze the trigger. This should give you a good idea if the sights need to be shifted. Even taking your time with the two hand hold, if you have a fault, it will show compared to the rested shots.

639, all the way. I have 2 Sigmas that are fire for effect weapons, the 639 has never let me down regardless of the ammo.

FWIW:

When I want absolute accuracy I go to my S&W/HK P7.

As a family photo below shows, the adopted HK P7 was never told it isn't really a "Smith n' Wesson", but I'm afraid as it gets older and realizes the difference in it's color as compared to it's siblings it's gonna' start asking questions..

My wife and I just treat it like any of our other S&W firearm "children" and it's just one of the family, so to speak...

P.S. Oh yeah, it'll outshoot any of it's adopted brothers any day of the week..

My all time favorite 9MM, you can't beat it with a stick. 639, a stainless gem.

My best non PC, non Barsto, is my 5926, it's the tightest 59xx series I've seen, and shoots good enough to do 597 indoor PPC. It shot 147 hornady hp's very well at 50 yds also
