    High quality 9mm?

    What you have to pay $3000 for a P210 in the USA? A former swiss service pistole P49 aka P210 worth only approx $1000-1100. For target shooting they are meybe not better 9mm gun ever build.

    New Toy: Walther PPQ or STI Spartan 9mm?

    As a range toy an target shooting I would go with the STI 1911. Much better trigger and fun to shoot then any sticker fired gun. You already have some double stack 9mm and a PPQ is just an other polymer framed bouble stack service pistol.

    Thinking of buying a Glock. Should I?

    A pistole must fit you hand and you have to master the trigger well. I tried my friend's P30 few time. It fit my hand well, but the trigger (in this case the P30 V1 trigger configuration) is note my favorit. Long trigger pull and you have to release the trigger quite long to get to the reset...
