Favorite 9mm semi auto

[Bolt_308]

Except for their stupid rail which they still haven't updated.

Yes I had to my a rail adapter for my HK USP 40. Was not that expensive back when I bought it.

FYI that the Streamlight TLR-1 series of weapon light can be made to fit the USP's 'proprietary' rail with a quick 5 minute adjustment using a dremmel tool to the inside of the light. It doesnt change the light from being able to be mounted to any other gun, and since it is inside the clamp, you cant see the modification, meaning it keeps the look and doesnt look janky or anything. Plus added bonus that the TLR series has that 'retro' look to it that fits the USP perfectly! I much prefer to have mine direct mounted with this slight mod then using the aftermarket rail adapter, which I also have but no longer use . . . ;-)

Any youz guys using the weights for usp expert/elite? Maybe they fit reg usp also I dunno.

I like this mark 23 one. Too bad mk23 costs 12.8 billion dollars.

My favorite semi auto 9mm is a DA/SA made by Smith and Wesson. The JM edition 929 revolver, technically not a semi auto but it does go bang every time the trigger is pulled. I have probably close to 15 real semi auto 9's but my favorite 9mm pistol to shoot is this revolver.

The 39 and Sig P225 are awesome single-stack nines that don't get much limelight anymore.

Sig P225, I just inherited one of those. Heretofore, I didn't know they existed. It's a chunky little thing. Some day I may shoot it.

The S&W Model 39 has been a favorite of mine for years, I've owned several of them. And a couple of the stainless versions, the 639. Which has sharp edges.

The Sig that I like is the P210. They are a bit on the rich side to buy. Even at that, I've looked at them. A guy at one of the ranges that I used to belong to had one out. He saw my admiring glances and offered to let me shoot it. It was a very natural pointing gun and quite accurate. His was made in Germany. Not long after, I stopped at a gun store in Bellevue where this guy had bought his. I enquired about them and was told they were no longer being imported. Then a couple of years later, I learned they were available again but were made in New Hampshire. I looked into the new ones, they had a different appearance and I was no longer interested. And saved a couple of thousand dollars. Of course the Sig P210 was spun off of the original Swiss Sig service pistol. Which in turn was the basic Petter design made by the French as the Model 1935A in .32 French Long. I did own one of those decades ago when they were a $75 gun. Black enamel finish and all.

So it's a Glock?

No, DA revolver.

Favorite for what purpose?

Wackiness included?

Fwiw/FYI Swiss made p210s are available in large numbers and excellent condition. But they all cost $1900 - $3600. I want one but won't spend that kind of $ on one.

Gross. I have several of those adapter rails, but cant stand how low and far away it puts the light, makes it hard to hit with your thumb. If you dremmel off just a tiny bit of metal on the inside of that light, it will mount up there directly no problem, and much cleaner!!

I might be convinced to take that P225 off your hands if you're less than enthused with it.

The P210 is a sweet piece. I had one about 20 years ago and swore I would never sell it. Unfortunately that didn't work out. I'd get another one, but for the current asking prices on the German ones, I have different priorities in life right now.

As to the OP...
Somehow, I ended up with about fourteen 9mm pistols.
Favorite? How 'bout both ends...
My G26 for carry.
A 1988 Ruger P85. Just a tank, but sweet shooting!

Joe

Recently ran across a P85 at a somewhat local gun store. Was in a bit of a hurry to get to an appointment but I gave some serious consideration to buying it. Kinda think I should go back and see if it is still there

 

[coop44]

For what? Shooting , duh. Browning high power, it just fits my hand perfect, grip angle is perfect, capacity is perfect, weight and balance are perfect. Of course being a huge JMB fan it makes me smile!

 

[static808]

CZ75 SP01 converted to single action only and trigger work from Cajun gun works. Love the grip, weight, balance, you name it. And an absolute tack driver.

 

[Forester]

Staccato P steel frame

 

[bravofour]

Can't choose just one, but I believe the S&W M&P 2.0 is the most underrated duty style pistol being made today. Absolutely great guns that don't get the attention they deserve.

 

[64MercurysRule]

Wife enjoys her SIG 225 and I my SIG 226 ...... As they say SIG Sweet Shooting .

You should get a roller delay upper for that. Reports are that it completely transforms the gun.
