The Model 3913 is a compact, single-column 9mm designed for carry-friendly dimensions without giving up shootability. This example has a 3.5 in barrel and an 8+1 capacity, measuring approximately 6.8 in long, 5.0 in high, and 1.3 in wide, with an unloaded weight of about 25 oz.
The stainless steel slide and barrel are paired with a lightweight aluminum alloy frame. It uses a DA/SA, hammer-fired system with a slide-mounted safety/decocker. A spur, serrated hammer and a smooth, curved trigger complete the control layout.
Sight configuration is a fixed 3-dot setup with a dovetailed front and a low-mount rear. The rear cut follows the Novak-pattern low-mount profile with SA08/SA24 compatibility, offering common aftermarket options if desired.
Slide features include an external extractor and a lowered ejection port. Markings are factory correct, with the right side showing the S&W crest rollmark and the slide marked "SMITH & WESSON SPRINGFIELD, MA U.S.A."
This is the standard 3913 configuration with a straight dust cover (non-LadySmith/NL) and no accessory rail (non-TSW). It wears a one-piece wraparound synthetic grip with S&W medallion for a secure in-hand feel.
