Hey guys, I'm looking to purchase my first handgun, and I was hoping you could help to decide which. My priorities in order are:
9mm (a must, because cost of ammo)
less than $1,000 (a must)
made in these USA
comfort (I realize that only I can decide this when I feel it at the store)
reliability
accuracy
ruggedness
ease of cleaning/ field stripping
concealability
accessories
The models I'm caught between are (in alphabetical order):
Beretta 92A1
Beretta Px4
Glock 19 (c?)
Ruger SR9
Sig Sauer P250 compact
Springfield XD 4"
Swith & Wesson SD9
This gun will be for concealed carry/ self defense (either in the 4 o'clock or kidney position). I know the concealability is near the end of my priorities, but I can always change my clothes if needed.
If you have any other suggestions, I would be happy to hear them.
