Competitive guns

This is an interesting thread, I'm shooting a Glock 17 in production and other than some slight mag change problems (I'm a lefty and sometimes I don't put enough pressure with my trigger finger) I'm pretty satisfied with it. The weight is light but for a 22 ounce gun it handles the recoil well. I thought the Beretta or CZ would fair better due to the difference in weight and handling recoil, but from the this poll I think I'll just stay with my Glock.
 
I think the comment that the piece that fits you best is the best for you.
I like the XD40.
It fits well, I enjoy shooting it, it is relatively inexpensive, is easily convertable from 40 cal to 9mm, mags are well made and also reasonably priced.
I think the problem with the XD was the "in production", "out of production", "in to production again" issue.
I'm just glad the matter is finally settled.
 
I went from shooting a G22 and G35 in standard, to an STI Edge in standard, and ultimately to shooting a Para LDA in Production. The Glock is a very easy gun to shoot and maintain for a beginner, but you need to learn the trigger, and always get the grip "just right" (high up into the beavertail) in order not to get a high torque flip during recoil.

The STI Edge was an awesome firearm, easy to control and simple to maintain and customize to your needs. But it is a high dollar item, and will not compensate for someone who does not know how to shoot. It simply makes a good shooter that much better.

The Para LDA was the easiest transition of all firearms so far. When you come from a Glock trigger, the Para LDA is a breeeze to get used to (would not be the case if had never fired a Glock before due to its long reset). It has the weight benefit over the Glock, plus the mags are much easier to seat during reloads, and maintain overall. Plus the grip of a 1911/2011 just feels "right".

For these reasons I prefer the Para LDA.
