How about a Used P226 with a Barsto Barrel?

Or if you can find one a P7 PSP

I had my Berreta 92FS stolen & since insurance was less than cost I replaced it with a CZ75BD & I am GLAD I did!! I love it! It shoots every bit as well, Very accurate, & eats anything I feed it (which is mostly reloads now). I did like my 92FS but the CZ is much better for the money (IMO). I also own a Ruger P95DC which is a nice Auto 9mm & does have a rail built in, But I have to say I like the CZ best of all..It would be the last full size auto I would part with...

Lots of great suggestions here. Personally, I'd go for a Glock 19.

I've never shot a CZ, but the guys that have them sure do like them a lot. You may want to take a look.

Good luck in your search!
 
I wonder how many people practice enough to actually make a good 'accurate' assumption. I personally don't rely on someone giving me 'accurate' info without shooting several hundred rounds through a few different pistols. In my opinion if you shoot one gun enough you can become accurate with it because you've gotten use to shooting it.

i quote this from the site above, and yes, i agreed to it.

25. Hi-Point C9 Comp: Haggle Price $150-$180
You know how the Glock feels like your are shooting a brick? The Hi-Point C9 Comp is the brick! It is so top heavy that it feels weird. The C9 can really shoot! The Hi-Point C9 accuracy just blew me away, as it will cut a ragged hole in a target. It doesn't feel so weird anymore. I had to tweek the magazine tabs (bang them on the shooting bench) to get mine to feed good. At this price, it is a good tackle box or truck gun. Over 3000 rounds and still holding up! Rated for +P+ ammo. You know what's really strange? Every time I bring the C9 to the range, everyone wants to shoot it! Reliable made in USA pistol with a lifetime warranty. Great gun for first time shooters as it is simple and reliable. It is a bargain as it shoots like a $500 pistol. I wish hi-cap mags were available.

Another vote for glock 17 or 19.Simple,rugged and feeds just about anything you can feed them.
 
I can keep a quarter sized hole at 7-10 yards with my G17. It is very accurate.

I'd find a used slabside 9mm somewhere and go with that. You can't beat the 1911 frame.
 
"Most accurate and reliable 9mm under $500?"

The Glock 9mm you prefer. I happen to prefer their 19.
 
Best handgun I've ever fired, period, is the UltraCompact 9mm Bersa. I've never had a misfeed or misfire, and the pistol is dead-on accurate. Under $400, too.
 
9's

Lots of good guns out there. I bought a new XD9SC a few years ago, new for $499. Later I bought a used CZ75B for a lot less. It was hardly used and is excellent. Don't overlook used.
 
I walked out the door this past Saturday with a brand new CZ-75B with an extra 16 round factory mag for $513.

Yesterday I took it to the range and put 115 rounds of cast bullet and JHP reloads through it. In addition to one of the factory mags, I used two older 10 round mags that I no longer remember what they were made to fit. The pistol worked flawlessly and accuracy was somewhere between target and combat but leaning toward combat. Ten rounds rapid fire at 9 yards I could cover with my hand.

You can do a lot worse than the CZ-75B.
 
A lot of great recomendations here already. My .02, buy the one that feels the best that has a warranty and reputable name.
 
Why get another 9mm auto? You need a .357 wheelgun to go with your Glock 17.
 
I just paid $400 for a brand new in the box Sig Pro SP2022, and think it is certainly the best 9mm at that price point; in fact, i'd say it is one of the better 9mm pistols at any price point.
 
The SP2022 is a great gun that is really underrated. You can get them everywhere for about $450 OTD.

My issue with them is that the DA is very long. It is smooth and breaks clean but I find myself waiting for it to fire. LOL

I own one and love it and consider it a great value but you need to know what you are getting. The SA is great.

I will again state that for the $500 range the used P228s that just came into the country are worth a look.
