Need a new 9mm. What's your fave and why?

The best shooters are the heavy ones. A heavy pistol results in exceptional reduction in muzzle flip and recoil over the light weights. Also makes imperfections on the trigger squeeze more forgiving. Better weight/trigger pull ratio.

Best shooting pistol in the collection is the X-Five Steel Frame. SP-01 is heavy too.

Well, I picked it up today. Very impressed with STI build quality. Cycles extremely smooth. Put a pair of my favourite grips on it to make it mine.

Very happy.

I agree. I like the feel of a 1911, CZ, or Jericho 941.
Dislike the Beretta 92, aluminum framed SIGs or anything "plastic"

Congrats on purchasing a real gun. Don't need a bunch of mall ninja add ons. Beats the h##l out of a video game pistola.

My favorite changes from time to time but right now this one is my favorite.

So much shinier and prettier than my Beretta 92 INOX

If you want to take a girl to the ball who is the prettiest and the best dancer, the SIG P-210 Target is the lady.

this will be my first and last handgun. add reloading and I'm set.

 

[Ballox]

My favorite to look at is my taurus PT 92 (above). My favorite shooter is my jericho 941.

 

[TheHitman]

I'd go with a Sig P226 9mm. The Navy Seals upgraded to it after using the Beretta for years. Accurate and reliable, can go to hell and back with it.

 

[YosemiteSam]

I love my Sig 226 & I love my Glock 17. At this point it's a pretty intense love triangle. Good luck on your choice!

 

[Ballox]

I love my Jericho 941 Will never sell

 

[Sharps '63]

Yep, all them Beretta, Caracal, CZ, , FNH-USA, Glock, HK, Kahr, Kel-Tec, Kimber, Walther, Ruger, SigSauer, SCCY, Springfield, S&W, Taurus 'Tupperrware" guns is just plain junk - till ya shoot 'em!

Hey, I'm a dyed-in-the-wool 1911 fan, but I gotta hand it to the plastic guns. Their lightweight and 'light' price makes them quite attractive to new shooters, especially the ladies, and there ain't nuthin' wrong with that!

CZs are clearly the best 9mm <$1000 pistol around!

As to their appearance, anyone who says they're ugly has obviously never seen Miami Vice lol...

A stainless CZ75 is the closest I can get to the ultimate goodness that is Sonny's Bren Ten!

If i could buy a Pistol that just sounded like they made Sonny's Bren Ten out to be....i'd pay ANY price. lol

 

[S1nnerman]

I bought a Walther PPQ a few months ago and that pistol is a real sniper gun. I love it !!!

Wished a dealer would bring in the 5" M2 model. A few of us have tried to get an answer from NS.....but no reply.

How do you find the mag release on the trigger guard?

Just remember to check the weight. If planning to get in to competitions such as IDPA, and heck I didn't plan to when I bought my first pistol, some CZ's are too heavy to be allowed.

Throw another vote for the Sig 226. Looks and shoots great.

 

[S1nnerman]

At first I did not like the mag release but now I wish all my guns were like that
