Some of this depends on a person't preference in pistol type. If you like DA, I'd say Beretta. If you like Glock's safe action system, then get a Glock. If you like SA, there are many fine choices out there. Then you also have 9x19mm wheelguns.

Your question is not well thought out. There are pistols made for concealment, pistols made for target shooting, pistols made for police work, pistols made for military applications. One pistol can never cover all these catagories.
I am assuming you are like most folks who use your pistol for weekend plinking. If cost is no object and this is what you are going to use your pistol for then the Sig Nuehausen P210 is probabaly the most accurate out of the box 9mm pistol in the world. It even beats many custom built guns. My well used P210 shoots 1/2 inch 25 yard groups at 25 yards with cast bullets.
Is it the worlds best military pistol. Probably not. Is it the worlds best concealable pistol, most definately not. The point I am trying to make is your question was not specific enough. It covers too many catagories. W.R.

Well he did say "Combat" tho didn't specify which of the many 9mm cartridges.
Assuming 9X19 was inferred....I went for Hi Pow.
Would rather use 9X32R for most anything tho so if that was an option would choose Smith 19 for wheel and Coonan for auto.
So many guns, so little money.

Voting for CZ
I've owned most popular brands HK, Glock (Carry a G19), Beretta etc. or shot them. Today I bought a CZ75B, new with a 10 & 15 rd mag for under $350 with tax. Freaking tack driver, 1-1.5 inch groups at 25ft , for fun I ran the second target out to the end of the range beyond where I could see a hole and fired 3 times once at the head and two at center of mass. Brought the target back and had a high head shot and two center of chest shots.
Today I really learned quality isn't always linked to expense...
Glad to see some other converts voted for CZ also!

Sig P210 followed closely by the Walther P88.
Differences in one being hand fitted on the bench and the other a production handgun.

What about Lugers or Walthers (Kurtz) and even Mausers-which were actually used in combat?
What about H&K?
The only S&W 9MM outside of police issuance I've seen are the stainless ones currently carried in Cambodia.
The only "combat" 9MM in your poll is the Browning HP, which has seen real combat. The Glocks, Berettas, Sigs, etc. have only seen limited action in Desert Storm, the Falklands, Isreal/Lebanon and the Balkans.
The best gun (or 9mm) is the one in your hand when you need it.

I currently own Glock, Smith, SIG, Beretta, H&K, Walther and CZ 9's. And the one that always goes with me to the range is the CZ.
Take care!
