What 9mm if money was no object??

I'm always tempted to toss Korth into the ring in "money no object" threads but, unless it's to be a showpiece, the P210 is likely a better choice.

Somebody already mentioned STI - good choice.

WildWest builds some fine custom BHPs - call 'em. I'm betting an SFS mod wouldn't add much, if anything, to something along these lines:

my impression of the korth automatic is it's an overpriced uninspired and ugly automatic, how is this a showpiece?

Sig p210

HK P2000 or USP

HK P2000 or USP if I could afford it.

But if you put no caliber restriction on that, I'd get a Mark 23 SOCOM with sound dampener, a truck load of mags, and endless ammo!

The one I saw was pretty but didn't run right. Wasn't overdone like some examples.

SIG P210 and the X-5 come to mind.

But if I had a whole buncha money that I can just blow on one gun, I'd get a Colt 1911 in 9mm and get it customized by one of the outstanding smith's...

Lots of mentions on the SIG 210, and rightly so--It IS the best. But let me throw a curve in....I don't really care for the "-#" models.....

I'd hold out for a pristine, used Danish military, original 210.

(I won't tell you about the one I ran into at a gunshow 5 years ago. For $900. In 99% condition. That I passed on to buy a Python with timing problems. No, I won't tell you about that.)

The Walther P88 just gets no luvin...

Swiss P210 or HK P7.

MMMMMM!!!! P88!!!! Drool! I actually have my dream gun. Which is a P99 AS! I always wanted one! Is there more expensive out there sure is there much better out there not IMO. All this 226 talk has forced me to order one just now!

Ill add a +1 for an HK P7M13...like the dude in Die Hard 1 had..

Since I won't buy a non-SA capable gun, my choice would be a Novak custom BHP.

Only TWO guys mentioned the X-5? If it's gotta be a 9mm ... it's gotta be a SIG of some iteration ... 210, or the 226 X-5 ...

Hmm.

Perhaps one of the Beretta 92's that's been gone through and set up for EIC hardball competition then?

Or if money is really no object, how about a Devel?

HK USP9SD and a P7. Otherwise it will be lonely. Glad money's no object.

CZ 75 from Bruno Chek.

Kent

Sig X-Five or Sig 210-6

I'll have to go with a full custom Hi-Power by Novak or Yost as well.

If money were truly no object?

The gun Hitler shot himself with?
The first Luger in 9mm?
The first BHP?
The 9mmx18 Makarov taken from Saddam and presented to George Bush?

Sig P-210.

Beretta 92

1914 Artillery Luger with matching shoulder stock and snail drum mag along with all of the goodies the go with it.

If money's no object, why a 9, and why no SA? Others have said it though. Try out every prospective model that you can test fire. At least handle those available for sale but not available to fire. If it's for actual use, pick the one that points best for you and is reliable, whether it costs a few hundred or several thousand.

The original poster did not say that it had to be a handgun, so with money being no object, get an HK MP5SD3 with suppressor, retractable stock, a buttload of magazines and ammo, and last but not least:

DA SWITCH
