So I've been mulling over my first "plastic" 9mm for awhile now. My choices are between the Glock 17 and the Ruger SR9. XD's are out because the shop I'm loyal to has them for roughly $600 (used!), $100 more than their new Glock 17's.
The SR9 comes in at $379 and some change while the Glock comes in (new) at $489 and some change. Reading everything online the opinions are very, very mixed.
So hopefully this thread will catch the attention of some SR9 owners and I can get their input. My two main concerns are accuracy and ergonomics. Some have reported that the SR9 has a trigger so bad you can't even pray for good groupings, and others say the safety is hard to operate. Others say they've improved since the release. What say you?
Edit: I'm very well aware that none of the mentioned firearms are "plastic". They're polymer, composite materials, etc.
