Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum. I've been reading around and decided to join and seek some advice.
I'm looking for a pistol to shoot at the range and home for fun. I don't have any plans to conceal it. I already have a .22 revolver and would like to buy my first semi auto. I've shot a few semi autos. I've spent the most time with a friends TT-33. I'm looking for something similar, but figured a 9mm would be better because the rounds are cheaper and non corrosive. My budget is around $300. I'd like to stay under, but if I have to go over to get a nice reliable firearm I will.
I'm thinking about a Glock G17, Beretta 92FS, or a CZ 75B. I've seen these guns sell within my range, but from reading around that seems pretty low. Is there some better options out there for me? I've considered a Makarov or CZ 52, but am concerned with the availability of ammo. 9mm is cheaper and more readily available. I'm hoping to go to a gunshow in the next few weeks so I was hoping to have a good idea of some pistols to keep an eye out for and fair prices for them in used condition. Any help is greatly appreciated.
