I'm going along S&W Model 59

I've owned a couple of SIG's, a couple of M&P's, a KelTec, ...

This one is the "house gun", and until Connecticut got stupid about magazine capacity, it was a pretty regular carry pistol
 
Glock 19, still the best shooter I own. And I would take one over any 9mm on the market. But there are plenty of other good ones. It's just to me the 19 is the best combination of size, comfort, reliability, simplicity, accuracy, with concealibility if you need it.
 
Tough choice! It would be either my HK P30S or my Browning Hi-Power. As they are now the P30S probably wins. If I ever have the coin to send my BHP to C&C to get some work done (add beavertail, etc) then the BHP might edge out the P30S.
 
1. My Hard Chromed Browning Hi-Power
2. The Sig P228 that I was stupid to sell off
3. My Gen 3 Glock 17
4. My Sig P225
5. My Springfield 1911 9mm
 
HK P7M8

My two favorite 9mm are my CZ 75D PCR and EAA Elite Match. Both are fine shooting handguns.
 
The best shooting and most dependable 9mm I own is a Hi Point C9 I bought for less than $100 a few years ago. Everyone always laughs until they run a few mags through it and then they invariably look at the gun and laugh again. LEO's are the worst because they consider them to be "ugly ghetto guns" but they all like the way this one shoots. I had a Sheriff's deputy that was having trouble with a his Glock and he fell in love with the Hi Point until he found out how many rounds it holds. It is an awesome shooter and, aside from some issues with a new magazine that I had to work on, has been flawless. It is big, ugly and holds ridiculously few rounds for it's size but it does what every firearm should do and that is go bang every time.
My favorite that I own is a CZ. Beautiful and smooth. The best I ever shot was a Browning Hi Power but I don't actually own one of those.
 
Walther P99AS.

I'm not yet aware of any polymer-framed striker-fired pistol whose ergonomics, reliability, or trigger feel can top this design.
 
I think I'll toss a good SR9 into the mix. Sure it ain't a Sig, but I enjoy it a lot. It's a fun handgun.
