Any Glock 9mm with G18 mags. Get the mags while you can; Natchez still has them for a decent price.

Sig 226 in 9mm. Pick up an older CPO and you won't regret it. Contact these guys: http://www.jcweaponry.com/main.html Their website sucks but they have excellent prices and service. Failing that try http://www.topgunsupply.com and ask for Tom. They are showing their 9mm CPOs out of stock, but a phone call often works wonders. Again, stellar service and excellent prices.

Glock 9mm with 33 round mags. Mine functions very, very reliably. Mags are relatively inexpensive. Aftermarket sights are available and easy to install. The trigger, while different, is very shootable.

If you do go with a Glock platform, stay away from Scherer aftermarket 33 round mags. I have not had good experience with 33 round mags that do not have the Glock "G" on them. Glock hi-cap mags work great.

I've got a Stoeger Cougar 8000 in 9mm that I'd sell you. Thing is perfect condition. Shot very little. 15+1 capacity. DA/SA with decocker. Barrel rotates to lock with the slide which is supposed to provide greater strength and accuracy. Other features include rounded edges, ambidextrous safety, 3 dot white fixed sights, steel slide and alloy frame, etc. About the size of a Glock 19 (it fits in my leather g19 mags like they were built for it). Comfortable to carry and shoot. She sits in my safe now. Could use a new home. I have the original boxes and papers. Was brand new from Cabellas in 2007.

Come on up to Erhard, MN, and you can try a plethora of 9mm Glock w/G18 mag. (try the 17-19-26-34)

You could check out a CZ in either steel or polymer, or a EAA Witness. No decocker but are available in DA/SA. Can be carried condition 1, or hammer down for DA first shot, if desired. I like them both.

I also agree. Get the glock 30-rounders and use the +3 extension. All 5 of mine have functioned flawlessly.

I'll second or third or where ever I am on the list on the Sig 226 or 229 9MM. Forget the Glock.

Or buy a used Glock at Streichers and get 300 bucks worth of ammo to learn how to use it for the same price as that used Sig.....

Yeah, but after you shot all the ammo, you still only got a Glock ;)
