Latest 9mm Top 5?

[dmyck1]

I like my CZ 75 PCR (Police Czech Republic) It's compact and I have 16 rd, magazines. That's for winter carry. In the summer it's Kimber Micro 9

SIG X5 Tacatical, P210 accuracy, 1911 controls, 20 rounds

I love my CZ 75 SP-01 Tactical, but after getting to handle the new CZ Shadow II all I can say is Damn! The Shadow's trigger is truly phenomenal compared to my SP-01.

 

[Oldtrader3]

Colt 1911 or Sig!

Sorry I've been kinda slow replying to this thread.

You need this!

If the cost was not a big issue, personally, I'd have to take a real hard look at the Sig P210. I think it's one of the most attractive/functional pistols, of any caliber, ever made. And now it's American made.

Another great (looking, shooting & super concealable) 9mm that I forgot to mention in my previous post is the Para Ordinance PDA 9mm. I happen to have one in my left-hand as I'm typing this. Everything about is nothing short of fantastic, except perhaps the price tag. The trigger is truly second to none!

The new Army P320 is interesting but I've heard they're a little sloppy and inaccurate.

The Sig P320 has been on the market for nearly 3 years. Where did you hear anything negative about them?

Did you watch Hickcok45's review, and see how well he shot his??

It is the most modern design, and the only true modular pistol. Certainly the easiest handgun to break down and clean.

Walther PPQ...

"Latest" has some negative connotations, as in what might be on a gravestone.
Just today I noticed that some fella had a hard on for the coming (giggity giggity) gen 5 glock for some reason.
To me, a handgun, be it just for paper punching or defense, should have proven itself and come with fair bona fides/provenance.
If I had a choice, I'd take a Hi-Power.. but any ol gat that has proven itself over time would be fine to use as a tool.
But anyway, this stuff makes the world go 'round.

I like the ol' gat myself.

Heh, he's never late.

The P226 is a really nice gun, my sisters was used when she got it, but they're just so expensive, i'm not sure i can justify one...

The H&K VP9 is really nice, feels good though i haven't fired one, would be cool to have as i don't have anything H&K.

The CZ-75, either B, BD or even the SP-01 seems like a nice gun, but i've literally no experience whatsoever of them.

Still somewhat tempted by the P320 - though re-watching Hickok's video, his band-aid requirement concerns me, i too have a little of that in some of my guns, my XDS starts to catch the edge of my finger somehow. Still, he *loves* the gun (and can't miss with it), which makes me think i don't care



There's something about the Walther that puts me off, but not sure why.


I should say again that this is a fun range pistol, so i want at least a 4 inch barrel, preferably longer.

There's a couple guns we can't get (so I gather) out of Russia and whatnot that look pretty neat. Generally they're steel, duty size guns.

Here is CZs for dummies:

P-09 is a poly frame hammer fired gun. Can be set up with a safety or a decocker. Think a hammer fired G17 with much better ergonomics

P-07 is the G19 equivalent to the P-09 being a G17.

CZ-75 is a basic hammer fired 9mm full size service pistol. It has a short dust cover. All steel.

SP-01 is the same as a 75 but has a long dust cover with a rail.

There are several compact versions, P-01 is a compact SP-01. There is a 75 Compact.

The 2075 Rami is a single stack "carry" gun.

They are coming out with a P-10 C. It will be a poly frame striker gun. Same size as a G19. The reviews say it's great.

I own a Sig and a Glock. I've shot Berettas, Springfield and S&W. I prefer CZ hands down.

"dust cover". lol

 

[DirectDrive]

"dust cover". lol

That's translated from some frilly Euro language.
It's actually a very menacing thing.
Doesn't just kill the enemy, it takes his soul.
