Looking to purchase handgun, recommendations?

No worries man, always willing to help a TW buddy. Let me know if you want to go. Anything but Tuesday-Thursday I can generally pull off. Sgc isn’t bad either for a indoor range. My Glock is a 19 4th gen and I do have a vp9 but I would have to look for the grip replacements, currently has a medium on it. That said after you shoot a steyr L9 you may find your self with the correct Austrian pistol lol. It’s a great gun but very little aftermarket support. I didn’t see it op, what’s your price range and use for it? Ccw, HD, range, 2gun?

 

Do you have a Steyr pistol? I’ve only ever seen one maybe 4 years ago. They looked sweet.

 

Yes sir, two L9’s and a s9
L9 is my 2 gun competition and S9 is my ccw. Tomorrow I’ll snag a picture of the S9

Edit: found one

 

Thanks and sounds good. No real budget, obviously not an $800+ gun. Just something reliable, verstile and easy to use and learn on. Primary use will be ocassional range, home defense / defense traveling cross country-out of town, etc.

 

I really like the M&P series. Maybe an MP9 would be another good choice.

 

Always do, been through a few PCS' with guns in tow. Including from AZ to NJ...hunting with my Dad in PA from NJ/IL, etc. I have an AZ Concel and Carry Card and IL Firearm ID Card. Thanks!

 

Makes sense for sure, I still get confused on them at times, especially NJ rules, lol.

 

Thanks!

 

GLOCK 19 or any other Glock would be my recommendation... but then I am a little biased...

 

Bahaha, there's alot going on there, keep gravitating to the chocolate chip cookies. Lol. Thanks!

 

Sounds like a compact if you plan to carry a lot and still use for HD and maybe a poly for weight. If I got that correct then
My vote is
1. USPc -okay support but very proven
2. Vp9 - great trigger but by hks own admission it’s not as reliable as the usp.
3. P320 - like it and good support but had a weird jam at a two gun so I lost some faith.
4. Glock 19 - tried and true. Lots of support can’t go wrong but I hate the trigger
5. Steyr m9 - underrated gun but no support
6. Walter ppq - great trigger
7. FN 509 - fun gun but it’s a buddies so my experience is limited
8. MP2.0 - tried and true and probably the 2nd maybe 3rd largest support
9. P10c - great gun with some quirks, grip is a bit aggressive and cz isn’t easy to deal with in my experience
10. Beretta Px4 - really like this one but it seems to be left for the arx
11 Beretta apx I like it but not as much as the px4
12 Iwi Jericho - iwi is moving a new pistol and it’s not bad for a cz clone but I don’t care for it much after shooting it
If I didn’t include it I forgot about or don’t have one / haven’t had enough time with one.

Now if metal framed I would say p229 compact

 

I also have one of these and highly recommend it. Bolts to the inside of the frame and is damn near impossible to get into.

That was all the 9mm versions in the house at the time... now there is also a 26, and now a few 40s, 45s and a .380 also... none of them are pictured...

 

Holy crap!!! Thanks man, this is super helpful. Appreciate it!

 

Anytime, I may have a problem or a collection depending on how you see it lol

 

You have many "solutions" not problems.
