I just purchased my very first handgun.....

Why do people keep saying Sig? Rep to the first person who can show me a 9mm, all steel, sig with a manual safety.

Rep for the challenge.

Well, this is awkward... This is the Sig 226 X5

Well, this is awkward...

Although, it still doesn't count, because he said it was a decocker/safety. There is no decocker on this weapon.

I am going with Ruger P series.

 

[esrice]

Glock 23.

Ok, there have been plenty of guesses. It's time to reveal this mystery firearm and add some photos to boot.

 

[scottka]

Going with the Ruger P Series also. To keep it interesting, I'll go with P93.

 

[Adamz04]

I bet it's a sig

It's definitely a sig, you can tell by looking at the pics.

Thanks to everyone who posted a guess. Here's a list of the other contenders.

Bersa Thunder Pro 9 HC - I still want this one.

Stoeger Cougar 8000 - Why get the knock off when you can have the real one? Yes, I know it's the same company, but anyone who has owned a Squire by Fender will understand.

CZ 75B - I still want this one too.

Taurus 24/7 - I guess they're still iffy.

GIRSAN TUGRA 16 - Can't get these here!

Sig p938 has a safety, but no decocker.

Very nice looking beretta!

I'm guessing it's a Beretta Cougar 8000 L.

 

[ag563]

Ruger P94, 9mm

I would love for you guys to show me where the safety is on a Sig. I'm going to go with Beretta 92 as well. Although, if he is getting creative and calling a .380 a 9mm kurz it could be a Walther ppk/s.

There are p226's with Safeties but not with a Decocker (i.e. one or the other). The issue is That the OP said safety/decocker and not "safety and decocker" or "safety + decocker". This would indicate to me that it has one or the other.

Although, it still doesn't count, because he said it was a decocker/safety. There is no decocker on this weapon.

My interpretation to that is above, but that's the issue - it's an interpretation that may differ from yours.

Get your finger off the trigger! lol Nice choice, personally I would have went with a SIG, but I love SIGs. lol

This pistol will go from hammer fully cocked to firing pin blocked and hammer fully de-cocked and with a flick of the safety lever. What would you say that makes it? I think it's a safety/decocker. The safety lever is the de-cocker and the safety no?

I love Sigs too. My very first choice was a Sig P226 DAK but the price was too much for me. The idea that I can double strike a failed round is nice since I'll probably be shooting lots of cheap Russian ammo. The Cougar has that feature as well.

What he said!!! Hand models should all know the safety rule of keeping your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot.

Nice pistol and looking forward to a range report.

You shouldn't misconstrue my statement to mean that they do not exist. I'm simply saying that it's not how I interpreted the post.
