First 9MM pistol......am I missing anything?

[Canuck44]

Another vote for CZ or Tanfoglio. Gunnar has a Tan for sale right now priced right. I have both a CZ 85 and a Tanfoglio "L" and am very happy with both pistols. Quality is there and they are built like takes. All steel ans being D/A S/A you get the best of both worlds if you decide to play the games either IDPA or IPSC.

Take Care

Desert (Baby) Eagle.

Very similar to the CZ's would be the Baby Eagle. Trigger is excellent right out of the box and it is extremely accurate.

Haven't tried the others, though I've been in the handgun game for 40 years. I am extremely pleased with this pistol.
The trigger, as mentioned in the last post is very pleasing. SA, mine goes off at 3.5 lbs. With minor modifications (some skateboard tape at the heel) I can shoot this pistol 300-500 rds without getting tired of it. Hope you get a chance to check out this very reliable product from Magnum Research.http://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif

I'd go for the Glock 17 but shoot one first to make sure you like it.

I'd go for the Glock, but Sigs are nice guns as well. Whatever you chose, get a pistol that fits your hand the best, you like the most and will be satisfied with. I own nothing but Glocks, I consider them tops when it to my needs. Consider your needs and purchase accordingly.

Once you get a USP9 in stainless, you will NOT go back.

I'm only familiar with handling/shooting the 92FS and the BHP. Personally, the BHP fits and balances in my hand better therefore I shoot better with it. Don't get me wrong, I think the 92FS is a great HG...it just doesn't fit my hand as well.
I acquired my 1935 HP "T" series from my father who rarely shot it and prefered his S&W 15 Combat Master piece over the HP. So ergonomics has a lot to do with it...I guess.
Good luck with your choice!

I would suggest you also look at the HK USP.Out of those you mentionned, i think i'd go with the SIG

Double and single action with a decocker, nitron finished stainless steel, and currently used by the Navy Seals.

When you bring it to the range you could tell everyone "I,m in the teams" and be a range dork

USP, K100 target, Charles Daly, Sig, CZ, Steyr, Norinco, Beretta, Glock

In that order, but that is just my personnal preference in what rests in my safe
