:confused: In search of 9mm with METAL frame, No light rails, DA/SA with decocker, barrel length fro 4" to 5", new or old production, and preferably single stack. Recommendations???
 
Seconding the makarov, mine has adjustable sights and it extremely accurate and the only pistol i would trust my life to.
 
DA/SA with decocker,
This is not what I would call "traditional".
Well, that is the "traditional" way SA/DA auto's worked from the day they were invented.

Think:
Walther PP & PPK.
Walther P-38.
S&W 39.
Most later metal frame S&W 39/59 series.
The whole SIG line.
Beretta 92.
Makarov.
And so on and so forth.

A traditional SA/DA auto pistol must have a safety / decocker of some sort to get from cocked SA after firing or loading, to a DA first pull again.

Sounds like a third generation S&W. The safety is the decocker on these pistols. The 3904 should meet the specs as defined by the OP.
 
Metal frame, DA/SA, 9mm, single stack, and no rails? Without question, the P6/P225.

If you're willing to go double-stack, then the BHP and P226/P228/P229 family and S&W 3rd gen pistols all come into play as well.

Fine gun. Well designed and superbly crafted with out a doubt.

Walther P.38 or the descendants, the P.1, P.4, and P.5
 
P225/P6 fits what you have asked for perfectly. Look no further.

Within your criteria...

S&W Model 39 - One of my personal best and one of most accurate porduction 9's ever made. (They were aluminum frame however there was a steel frame version as well) I had all steel nickel plated,beautiful!

Browning prob next choice .....

Outside your criteria.....(double stack)

2nd / 3rd Gen Smith
Beretta 92 (personal fav)
Taurus 92/99(personal fav)
Sig - sevral to choose from

New - havent tried but really want to shoot one ! :
Taurus 1911SS - 9

Pics Taurus 1911SS-9 and S&W mod 39
