Best 9mm - your opinions please

[esrice]

looks like i just missed that one - but i am still thinking hard even if the vote is clear on glock 19 the sig and the xdm still looks good to me

You'll come around. . . . they all do!


(truth be told, those are all great reliable guns. Its the small things that push the Glock over the edge for me)

Crazy! But don't fret, it was Glockguy07 who bought it, so you'll see it back up as trading fodder in the classifieds soon.

Best place for one

I carry a XD-9 and the M&P-9c Both awsome guns. And I would take either over a glock any day. But lets talk about all metal 9mm's. I want a stainless CZ-75

But honestly I think the choices fall as listed
best metal framed 9mm?
Sig 226 or other sig variant
Browning hi-power
CZ 75b or sp01
beretta 92fs

Best plastic 9mm choices?
Glock
M&P
XD-9 (#1 in my opinion)

 

[gglass]

Wow! you completely forgot the best of the breed... The Smith & Wesson M&P 9 or M&P 9c would be at the top of my list.

Nope, you won't - but thanks for the attention?

Feel free to buy the glock, you won't have sellers remorse when you sell it to buy the Sig!

(I'm in my P250 phase atm...

Ok, I have the Glock on your list the Beretta and the P94...... I love the XD never had one.... Ok, if you want a gun that will last for ever and hold good value get the glock, the M9 is a good gun and also fun to shoot...... But, belive it or not, one of my fav guns to shoot and the very first gun I bought the day I turned 21 was the P94, I love to shoot that gun and I have never had a problem with it! I have never had a provblem with the others but I have put a TON of ammo threw that P94. Plus, the price is very good on a P94 for a used one.... Just my 2 cents..... R

Hk - enough said. My Glock = 4 malfunctions to date. My Hk = 0 malfunctions to date. Do a search for 1,000 round torture test and see how many times that glock didn't cycle properly.

 

[Hobie8]

How many rounds thru the Glock?

 

[Rookie]

Less than 2,000

GLock 19 good on the range or for carry. USAF thinks so to.

 

[42769vette]

the sig 226 is a great 9mm

 

[Smitty506th]

Go with the Glock 19. We can all go round after round in here about the way weapons look but we all know what works.

 

[anthony010]

Used to own a glock 19 ok gun, bought an xd really like it, but its really just personal pref.

 

[00BlasterResto]

I like my beretta but It's my first so hard to make any bid claimes =)

 

[RogerB]

Best 9mm

I'll keep this simple...my XD 9. All the other 9mm in the world that I don't own have done nothing for me.

 

[WestSider]

I like the G19 best, other good choices would probably be an XD-9 (FS or SC) or an M&P 9c.

 

[clt46910]

I seem to pick up my Sig 228 most times when I carry a 9mm.

Lots of great advice from this forum for you to review. My first over 20 years ago was a Beretta M-9. I chose it because the US military picked it as their sidearm. I read the extensive testing done on this weapon and was very impressed. I also wanted to have a carbon-copy of what I'd carry in the military to familiarize myself with (secretly I wanted to practice/practice/practice in order to get a marksmanship medal). So the US military still uses the M-9 as its sidearm. Having said all that, I LOVE Sigs. I own a 228, a 239 and a 226. All are built like tanks and ultra-reliable. The Beretta has a safety, and the Sigs do NOT. Think of that when you review your choices. Do you need a safety? You can pick up used M-9's and Sig's for $350-$550.
