The only problem with the P7 is when you have to clear a malfunction or eject a live round. That small ejection port begs for casings to hang up in it. I've had to do that a few times (yes, P7s will jam).
 
Other than a Sig P225; Smith & Wesson's models
39 and/or 39-2 get my vote. These little gems
were far ahead to their time.

P7M8. Hard to find a more simple yet confidence inspiring manual of arms in any pistol. The fact that it is reliable and very accurate, make it one of the best defensive pistols in any caliber.

Unsheathing a P225 from a Galco is like pulling Excalibur from the stone--it makes every man feel like a king.

None fits my hand better. None.
 
I'd have to pick the P225 because of the price difference withe the other two. However, I feel that the ultimate single stack 9mm is the Sig P210.

Oh, horse manure...people who repeat this ridiculous myth are the ones who've never owned a SIG; or don't know how to keep a pistol from rusting in the first place.

Price dependent: The SIG P225;
Price independent: The P7 [but who needs to learn yet another manual of arms and pay twice as much for a single-stack 9mm pistol?]
 
Well, I voted for the HK P7M8. I have two of these guns and love them. However, I just acquired a NIB Walther P-5. This is one beautiful 9MM. Well balanced, very high quality with superb fit and finish. Haven't shot it yet, so we'll see.
