In Europe, the 9 mm semi automatic pistol has been a prominent feature in police, military and private shooters and collectors for a very long time.

So living in Switzerland I have naturally acquired a few over the years, and since all the range are closed I thought I’ll post a few pics here

Beretta 92 F - 1986

Obviously there are quite a few I’d still like to get, a Mauser C96 red nine, a German Luger etc..
 
I'm not a big fan of the 9mm Luger cartridge, but those are some fine-looking pistols.
 
Late Bloomer

Great collection of some really fine pistols. Thanks for sharing.
I fired my first Beretta about 30-35 years ago and I thought the slide was on roller bearings. I finally got around to owning one: a Beretta M9.
 
Excellent collection, I own one 9mm, a browning hi power, that nighthawk did some magic too. It's not for sale, and goes to my youngest son, after I can't use it anymore
 
Got to love the 9mm.

I'm fortunate enough to own well over 100 very fine Euro 9mms. Here's a few from my collection. Figured you wouldn't mind...though I'll freely admit your outdoor pics are much nicer. :)

Very nice family, I had never seen the Beretta 92 Combat before.
 
Super collection! Sure was nice when it was typical to see all metal handguns like the ones pictured. Like the P-7 squeeze cocker.

Wow, amazing, I feel like crawling under the tree stump now. That Korth is stuff of dreams, I haven’t seen one in years. I’ve shot a milsurp MAB in Africa, never seen a target one. Lots of target oriented pistols you got there, compensators, adjustable sights, very interesting. Thanks for posting.

Yep the Glock is the oddity here, resisted buying one for 20 years, then curiosity and cheap price made me take the plunge. Not a bad tool though.
 
I didn't know Korth made an auto- beautiful.

OP, I like how you cleverly hid the Glock in the middle of all those classics! It was like "Where's Waldo?"
