Smith & Wesson CSX-E | Small Gun, Big Features, Surprising Accuracy

The Smith & Wesson CSX-E brings serious versatility to the concealed carry game. It builds on the original CSX by adding an upgraded trigger, optics cut (RMSC & 507K compatible), and modular grip options—all in a compact, hammer-fired 9mm package.

In this session, you'll see why this pistol is more than just a subcompact. From flush-fit mags to extended 15- and 17-rounders, the CSX-E can be set up for deep concealment or full-day range training. The trigger is crisp with a short reset, and accuracy out of the box is seriously impressive.

Whether you’re running drills or setting up for EDC, the CSX-E adapts fast and runs clean.
