Favorite full/duty sized 9mm

[firecadet613]

Seems to me that dummies would need safety levers and DA triggers to keep from shooting their big toe off.

In fact, when a man asks for a recommendation for a striker fired pistol and gets hammer fired guns as a response, it's clear to see who the real dummies are.

Let me guess...you think pineapple belongs on pizza, too.

In before @Creedmoor shows up to ask why you don't want a manual safety!

Sig P226/229 and CZ P01 Tactical and Compact.
Just to spite you.

Spite me? Not my thread. I ain't the one asking for advice on modern pistols and getting irrelevant responses from the INGOtard fudd patrol.

Carry on!

1911.

ETA:
My bad. "9mm 1911" is not a real 1911.

Neither is yours, unless it's a Colt or a war production sample.

Everything else is a clone. Like a PSA Dagger, except for Lawrence Welk fans.

HK P30L LEM oh wit that’s hammer

I mean really pick one you can’t go wrong with a Glock 47/17MOS or even 34 S&W M&P CZp10 HK VP9 Springfield Eschilon lots of options

 

[bcannon]

CZ P10C, P10F, or XDs 45 4" for striker, BUL TacLight or Staccato P for not striker.

Reading is Fundamental, but reading comprehension is more important.
I've been laughing for 3 1/2 hours now.

I am thinking about getting this

VP9 Match here… by far the best shooting pistol I have ever owned. A Surefire X300 bezel sits flush with the muzzle making this the choice when carrying with a light-bearing holster. And it weighs less than the VP9L.

Full size sig p320 X5 legion, love mine it has the tungsten infuse polymer and weight in grip

The OP asked what our favorite full/duty-size 9mm was, and also said he's looking for one and prefers an optic-ready striker. I figured it was two questions.

You are going to make me look.

That's a nice pistol.

I have never seen an argument about striker vs hammer fired before. The terms "Dummies" and "Fudds" got into the conversation pretty quickly also.

I just surveyed my current handguns. I don't even have any that are striker fired. That would be evidence against me. I didn't even know I had anything against them. I know I have had some striker fired in the past, but they got traded off. I am sure being striker fired is not why.

I guess I have always been more of the "how do I properly use this piece of equipment" type.

Now I am thinking. The Hammer on a Browning Buck Mark is totally enclosed in the slide, even though it pivots in the grip frame. It looks like a striker fired handgun until you strip it down. Which camp is it in?

I have not finished my first coffee yet, this is getting complicated <grin>

It’s a hammer fired. Like an FN5.7, internal hammer.

Yea you can call me a dummy but don’t call me a fudd.

I guess he did say prefer.....

In that case I would amend my previous striker fired response from CZ P10C/HK VP9 to:

CZ PCR/PO1 variant, HKP30sk (or variant), Sig P229, or get an old school cool SW 3rd gen.
