Mid-to-full sized polymer pistol options? (For carry and target practice)

[Cheysdaddy]

I love my M&P Shield and Ive also had a Walther PPS that i loved carrying also. My Sig SP2022 isnt bad for carrying also

 

[Lebowski]

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I can't realistically purchase anything new for a while, but I've got plenty of time to do some more research and try to get to get a feel of some of these in my hand at my LGS.

To the op look into the CZ P09 or P07 they are fantastic fullsize midsized poly guns for the money. The P07 is G19 sized but with better ergonomics and trigger.

I have the older P-07 duty and I love it. I shoot it better than any other gun I've owned or borrowed, and the price can't be beat

Walther PPQ

Ok, kawtech87, I stand corrected, only 65% of America's law enforcement carry Glock. Several militaries and law enforcement carry as well, but your right it's less than 80%.

"Carry and target practice" are the same for me.
MID- G19
FULL-G41 or soon to be G40

I do not like Glock's for this reason, but if you do then go with it. Get a 19 and don't look back.

If you like the feel of the Glock, get it. I don't like the feel, but have shot several. They are nice guns, just not for me. I did check out the FN a couple nights ago. I could see one of them in my future.

I did check out the Glock 42. I thought it was pretty cool!

Taurus PT111 Gen2 9mm 1-111031G2-12

Taurus makes a good weapon at a good price. I sold my Glock 26 and bought two Tauri with the cash. Both have been excellent pieces. Had to send one back for service, but Taurus covered all costs. Again, 100% reliable since with 250-500 rounds through them. They are not Rugers or Sigs, but they solid, reliable, and accurate. Great for range or EDC in my experience.

I like to say Glock 19 all the way! If they fit your hand well you cant beat 'em, been my EDC for years now. Cheaper option maybe a Ruger SR9c, M&P 9 would be good too. It's in between the G19 and G17 size wise but with a 17 round capacity. I carry a G17 mag backup for my 19 though so same difference.

Not to mention AWESOME texturing/stippling. Like right between RTF2 and Gen 4.

You should definitely add the Sig P320 to the list of options. Shot one yesterday and I liked it vastly better than any Glock I have ever tried.

 

[NHT3]

There's a reason Glock sells more 19s than any other model.. Parabellum in Avon has one that they rent if you are ever up that way. If I know you are coming and I'm working that day I'll be happy to let you shoot mine.
