I own both the 9c and 26. I was lucky enough to be taught by ex LE about grip so I adapt quickly to each. I find them to be equally accurate. Plus to 26 for conceal and ease of parts relacement, plus to 9c for 2 more rounds, parts replacement more involved for casual user. Use what you feel best with but I don't think you can go wrong with either.

Agree with ColColt, nothing sweeter than a 3rd generation.
