Your thoughts on CS9 Chief's Special

[bad_man_ one]

I would like to take the gray grips off and replace them with black.

Just order them direct from Smith & Wesson, P/N 203560000

The CS9 is the way to go.It was my choice for 9mm semi auto pistol because it fit my small hands so well.Two improvements you can make are to get a set of Big Dog's CS9 Grips to replace those nasty hogue grips.With me and a few other CS9 owners we noticed that it shoots a little low to point of aim with the novak sights.I found that this was corrected with the instillation of Trijicon Night Sights and this was verified by a few other CS9 owners who got the same results when they followed suit.The last thing I did was to convert my CS9 to DAO because I am a long time revolver shooter and I like the longer trigger squeeze on each round just my personal preperence....All the Best and God Bless...Mike

Who makes the Big Dog grips and do they make them for a 3913LS - I would like to take the gray grips off and replace them with black.

Big Dog makes Big Dog grips.

They grips appear to me to be factory 3913 grips that are cut down, albeit very professionally done. They are only made for the CS series. Therefore, you don't want a set of Big Dog grips for your 3913. As noted, just order the factory grip from smith... it's $18, buit most likely backordered.

CHIEF SPECIALS

Thinking about buying one, and would like to know your experience with it.

I HAVE THE S&W CS9, CS40, CS45 IN SS 3RD GENERATION. THIS MAKES MY COLLECTION COMPLETE. I HAVE FIRED ALL 3 NUMEROUS TIMES AND ENJOY THE HANDLING AND FIRING EXPERIENCE OF THESE WEAPONS, THEY ARE THE BEST COMPACTS IN MY OPINION EVER MADE. RELIABLE, ACCURATE, SHOOT FOREVER. I ALSO HAVE ANOTHER FAVORITE, S&W 3913 9MM COMPACT, AN EXCELLENT GUN. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A CS 9, DON'T GIVE UP, HARD TO COME BY. BY THE WAY I ALSO HAVE A S&W 908SS ON THE FORUM FOR SALE LNIB W/ 2 MAGS. ANOTHER HARD ONE TO FIND. GOOD LUCK
REGARDS

Contact Tim Thurner at TT Gunleather:

TT GunLeather High Quality Leather Gun Holsters

Tim made me an awesome holster for my compact 4014. (IWB style). He makes a fully custom, extremely nice holster for 3rd gens, at a lot less price, and a lot quicker than other holster makers.

I picked up a CS45 a couple months ago. It was $300, and I bought it to re-sale and make a quick buck. I shot it, and it was pretty amazing. I figured I would carry it a couple days then sell it. It never leaves my side now. SOOOO comfortable to carry, extra comfortable after I had a holster made for it. Best part, custom leather holster made to fit....$45. Oh yeah custom tuckable holster. This gun was meant for me. I just saw somebody posted one here for $700. Starting to feel like I hit the lottery.

I have wanted a CS 9 for ages. But I just can't justify the cash for now. Someone commented on an HK and how the sights are more distinguishable. That really resonated with me as my EDC is a P30. Not too long ago I was considering having a BUG that was the same caliber as my EDC and went in earnest to look for a single stack. I went to the range with a buddy and brought my Sig 232 that was/is my current BUG. Funny, that day, I shot the eyes out (literally) with that little Sig. Even better than my HK. That was the end of my same caliber hunt.

ps. I still think the 3913 is the finest single stack 9mm out there...IMHO!

CS9 w BIG DOG GRIPS

Finest sub compact 9mm, single stack made by anyone - IF it fits your hand.

Sadly the CS9 did not fit my hand and I went with the finest compact single stack 9mm made by anyone - the 3913.

Reliable accurate little gun. Conceals easily. Consider Big Dog grips too. The only improvement that can be made on the CS9, IMO of course.

Why anyone looking for a compact 9mm would consider anything else i

All about the fit with the CS9. Great gun if it fits your hand. Very accurate little recoil and conceals well. I found the Shield is a better carry gun, but that's me.

I advise you to buy it, shoot it, love it. Regards 18DAI.

Agreed on the fit. I bought one for cheap. Didn't fit it made me sad because its an amazing pistol

I have a CS9 on the way from a fellow forum member.
Found some info on it and from what I see I high expectations .
It seems the CS9 can use a Glock 26/27 holster I hope this is correct since I will be tooled up with a couple on hand.
We will see how things work out.
A change from wheel guns could be an option.
We will see.

I'm fortunate to have two of them. I have an early blue CS9 tuned up by Novaks. I also have a stainless CS9D -- DA only. I actually prefer the CS9D. Too many years of shooting double-action revolvers I guess.

My early CS9 is not the most accurate of guns -- at least not in my hands. It is reliable though and easy to dump fast shots on target at reasonable distances. The DA only CS9D is more accurate in my hands. I bought Big Dog grips for both of them with made them easier to conceal.

I bought a Shield but find myself still preferring the CS9s. Wish they still made them.
