Sort of off-topic, but I've been accumulating 9mm DA/SA metal guns, and I like every one that I have. They each have their own charm, even the clunkers...
CZ 75 (2x)
Sig P226
Beretta 92FS
Daewoo DP 51
Beretta 92S
Star 30MI
S&W 915
CZ 99 (Zastava)
PHP MV9
I have a couple 5906's added in this Christmas, rounded trigger guards and Novak sights. 1 is ready to wrap, the other waiting to ship.
Of all these, about the only one I wouldn't trust is the PHP MV9. The rest have been reliable. The PHP actually has, too, but some parts look so fragile, and it's SO obscure you'd never find a part. But as part of the group, I like having it. The slide release and takedown levers literally look like they were made out of folded tinfoil pressed together in a vise, and then allowed to discolor to match the brownish "bluing".

I've considered getting a Ruger "just because" for awhile, but haven't been able to hit the price I want. No offense to Ruger, but I'm not paying the same price I did for my Berettas etc.For something cheap, the Ruger P series are out of production, but I bought three used ones recently that were incredibly cheap and are reliable.
