Have you ever considered a Beretta 92FS or a CZ 75, and or a Glock 17. What is wrong with polymer guns( and not plastic as you put it, somewhat of a difference)? Why buy the most expensive gun on the market. That may be a good rule of thumb in regards to other purchases, but for handguns it...

Funny. I find it funny that we debate how much bulets actually hurt. The best statement I've ever heard deals with shot placement. If me and someone else were to get in a gunfight, lets imagine this situation. My enemy in the gunfight hits me in the leg with his super load .45. I hit the enemy...

I remember my first experiance with the Beretta 92FS. I fell in love with the gun ater the first round fired. You can never go wrong with a gun maker that started in 1526. Do me a favor next time your at the range. Pour a handful of sand on the barrel/slide and see if you get jams. When...

I have some problems with the XD-9. One, it is new to the market in regards to a Glock. Second, it is just a semi-Glock with a 1911 style safety, which hinders the comfort level. Third, the bore axis seems very high compared to a Glock 17 or a Steyr M9. Fourth, ugly as hell and somewhat akward...

I have not been impressed with the XD-9. I've fired several at the range and among friends. I consider it sub-par compared to the Glock 17s I've fired.

All of you have been very helpful in your replies and I thank you. My main concern in purchasing this pistol is its reliability. Will I sacrifice reliability for a cheap price. And is it on par with a Glock in regards to extensive torture tests, etc. This gun seems like a sound alternative to a...

I agree with you on that Boats. The Beretta 92FS is a very impressive weapon. I would know because I own one. Maybe I should just get what I pay for in regards to the Beretta and purchase a Glock. I've always wanted a gun that can be used as a hammer, sand shovel, and also ice pick.

Do you htink both guns are equal in reliability? I'm looking for a gun that has the legendary reliability of the Glock 17. And what is meant by a SA timebomb waiting to happen? If I go the Steyr M9 route, I can save almost $150. But will I be getting a pistol as good as a Glock?

Hello. I was just wondering if anyone on the board owns a Steyr M series 9mm pistol. I'm very interested in how they compare to a Glock 17. Several Steyr pistols are listed on Gunbroker.com for a very cheap price. What pistol would be the better buy?

I undertand where your coming from about Germanic pistols. I've heard many stories about the CZ and its reliability. Does the CZ compare to a Glock in that regard. One person on "The Firing Line" mentioned that he dropped his in the dirt, the actually put more dirt in it. The pistol functioned...

Snappy recoil Thanks for your quick replies. My friend also mentioned that the recoil seemed very high for such a heavy gun. He recommended getting a heavier recoil spring to reduce the felt recoil. Is he correct in his thinking?

I just purchased a Beretta92 FS about three months ago. It has been flawless. I've run about 500 round of Winchester white box through it. A friend and I were out shooting last week. He wanted to try out my Beretta. He insisted on shooting the first shot in double-action. I was surprised when...

New member, second post Hi guys, Just started at my new job downstate, I'm origianlly from Traverse City. About three months ago I had some extra money from some over time I worked. My dillema was what gun to purchase. I finally settled on a Beretta 92FS standard. I purchased it...

Is the FN Five Seven Accurate I was just wondering how accurate the FN Five seven was. It seems like its a very high velocity round.
