suggestions for a Single stack 9mm metal frame and slide?

[candlejackstraw]

Hello,

First time poster here. I actually found this forum searching this question in google, but the threads were pretty dated, so I hope its OK that I'm reviving this question.

I'm a big fan of slender pistols with metal frames. I currently own a zastava M88a, M70a and 1911's in 45acp and 22lr.

I'm searching for single stack (or thin framed) 9mm's with metal frames. I prefer steel frames over other metals, but im open to all suggestions. Are there any other 9mm's based on the tokarev or john browning designs? Are there any that aren't based on those designs but slim and single stacked? Thank you in advance.

I owned a Sig P6 a while back. I believe they are single stack. It would have made a good carry gun. I went with a polymer carry eventually but I regret selling that pistol it was a good one.

Sig P210.

Some of the S&W 9mm autos were single stack.

For that matter, there are some companies, including Rock Island, that make 1911s in 9 mm, if that floats your boat.

Oh man, just looked up the sig p210. Obviously out of my price range, but its beautiful. I'd love a firearm like that.

Also, figured I'd add, I prefer hammer over striker fire.

Tail gator, I may look into getting back into those. I have a rock island in the past but 9mm magazines for a 1911 were difficult to find.

Smith & Wesson Model 3913 . Out of production but frequently on Gunbroker .

Imagine a metal framed hammer fired Sheild....now that would be perfect.

Or better yet a single stack CZ RAMI or PCR.

More times than not, Sig 239. Or my S&W 3904 if you can find one.

The Sig P210 is one of the best pistols ever built, but there are tons of great steel/metal single stack 9mms.

Various Stars fit the bill.

1911 in 9mm ....

S&W 3913 or 3914



Sig P239

Kahr?

+1 to the Stars. Lots of places selling the Star Model Super B right now for about $250. I believe Aim Surplus and J&G has them.

The Kahr K9/MK9/T9 seems to fit the bill.

 

[WVsig]

The Kahr K9/MK9 seems to fit the bill.

I love my CW9 but Kahrs reliability track record is spotty although the metal guns are better than the poly ones.

Here's another vote for the Sig P239 if a smaller sized pistol is an option.

I've always been interested in acquiring the Kimber Solo. Nice design and compact. Also the Sig Sauer P239 looks good.

Another vote for the Sig P239. I don't have big hands, but my fingers are kinda on the long side- so Hogue grips made my 239 a fantastic fit and pure joy to shoot.
