I'm not asking about what's the best 9mm in your collection, I'm asking what's the next 9mm pistol you intend to buy and why?
Did a gun rag do a write up on something new and catch your eye?

Are you going to buy one to complete a collection, to match a .40 or a .45?

Did the manufacturer just come out with a stainless or a polymer or a two tone in a favorite size or style?

Did you just come into some extra cash that's finally gonna allow you to buy that expensive model you've had your eye on?

What's the next 9mm that you intend to part with your cold hard cash for and why? What caught your eye? Where can I go and read about it?

Thanks--

How about a Kel-Tec P11? I looked it up and compared it to the upcoming Taurus Millenium Titanium, and it still weighed less! Besides, I'm not a big Taurus fan.
 
I am seriously thinking about picking up a cz75. I'd like to hear more positive remarks from fellow tfl members. They cost about 450 in Mass and 100 bucks cheaper elsewhere. If anyone has any info on these pistols I'd appreciate the help.

My CZ75B is the straightest shooting, tightest grouping 9mm pistol in my collection. I've achieved better results with it than with my Walther P88, various Ruger P Series, my Astra A-100, borrowed Berettas, and a host of others.

For the money... no way you can go wrong.

I'm thinking of:

* Glock 17, because it is ubiquitous, and hi-cap mags are available.

* HK USP 9 (or 9c), because I already have a USP 45 and it would not be too much of a stretch.

* Steyr S9 (The M9 is available, but I'll wait and see how small the S9 will be.)

It would be my first 9mm, and probably my only one, then I'll have the top 3 calibres covered (HK USP 45, Steyr M40, Glock 17).
 
I will probably pick up a H&K p7m8 as my first and probably only 9mm. I have never been a fan of the 9mm. To close to the 380auo (which I shoot), but not enought hit like the 38super or the 357sig. I will probably look at the p7 next week. I want a reliable steel gun for the wifes car, but is easy to operate.
 
The next two will probably be a Kahr P9 and a Glock 19. Probably the Glock will be the next.

The Kahr because of the combo of light weight, narrow profile, and shootability.

The Glock for reliability, parts commonality w/ other Glocks, and I have some model 19 mags already to feed my model 26.

One driver for the 9x19 is the ever-present ammo, another is its lower recoil would make it easier for teaching newbies. Actually, I'd really like to have my handgun battery be 9x19 for CCW, 10mm for home defense and SHTF, and .45 Colt for bear defense/hunting.
I'm happy with a few really good items, as opposed to having "one in each cartridge" or whatever.
 
The Baby Eagle. Can't beat the gun for the money. Then the new Baretta 9000 when it comes out.
 
I want a Glock 19. I don't like the finger grooves on the new ones much. Probobly won't
carry it,kind of thick. Glocks are good shooters.Worthy addition to my collection.
