The CZ-75 to me is the highest quality/least expensive 9mm made to date.

i think this is one of the best deals around for a new 9mm, as opposed to used of course.

Why would that be an issue? Nobody really cares if the OP is still around as long as they can throw in their 2 cents into the thread. This isn't about the OP any more...It's about us now.
I would really like a 1911 chambered in 9mm but they seem to be hard to find and are way too pricey!
Nah... a RIA 1911 in 9mm is like $370 on Centerfire Systems.
If you can't find a used Glock 17 dirt cheap, check into the Hi-Point 9mm. Read all the reviews you can find. I don't know much about 'em but aside from them being crude and heavy, I don't recall hearing anything bad about reliability. 9mm is the cheapest caliber for practice ammo here, maybe there, too.
He's in Canada...
He's hamstrung to 10 rounds...
The clear choice here is to switch calibers to .45, save up a bit more, or cut back in other areas.
Up there, they are knee deep in Norinco 1911s. He should grab one or two of those and not look back. Get some bumper pad 10 round mags, he'd have the ultimate blaster for a Canadian!

I'm with defjon, my advice, since you're in CA, would be pop for a 1911, reload for .45 and cast your own "boolits", price for your reloads would only be somewhere between .05 and .10 each at the most....
If you've stumbled across this thread because you have a similar or the same question and are in the US then I would suggest a used S&W, there are 5904s on gunbroker now from Cole Dist for around $250 and 5906s can be found for a little over $300.

I agree with the Norc idea for a cheap 9mm, considering they're plentiful here in Canada and illegal to import into the USA.
The Norinco NP-22 is a Sig P226 clone that I would recommend. It sells for $359 Canadian at Marstar. While it's not perfect like the Sig, the fit and finish of the NP-22 has really improved over the last few years.
I also own the $199 dollar 9mm Tokarev Norinco clone (NP-17) that my wife with small hands still enjoys shooting. It's solid forged hard steel, heavy, and has little recoil. You could use it as a hammer, a crow bar, shoot it from a cannon, etc. and it would still shoot straight. It's surprisingly accurate, and no FTF/FTE at all now that it's so broken in. My wife can take it apart and put it together blindfolded in about 2 minutes.
Even after buying more expensive toys, I still keep these in my gun safe and bring them to the range. They make great lenders and beater pistols.
