Best 9mm by Best Manufactures

[Redcoat3340]

If you were compiling a list of the best 9mm pistols by the best gunmakers....what would be on yours?

For Sig a 210?

Walther: P5 or P88? Or...

Beretta: 92?

Colt: Government Competition?

H&K: P7

You get the idea.

What for Smith?
For Mauser?
Browning (Hi Power? What else?)

Etc.

Of major manufacturers...

HK: USP Elite or P9S Sport Group
Beretta: 92 Combat
S&W: PPC9 or 952
Sig: X5/X6 or P210
Walther: P88 Competition/Champion


My pick for best overall is the Pardini GT9.

All from a preference for accuracy/trigger/build quality/reliability.

 

[Cyrano]

Almost any Luger from any one of the seven makers (DWM, Erfurt, Bern, Simson, Krieghoff, Mauser, Vickers). Did I miss any?

Mauser Red 9. They're not finished as well as the earlier, peacetime pistols, but for all that mechanism to work, they have to be made right.

S&W: Model 39; anything else just isn't made quite a nicely.

SigP6 I got for $330 and shoots better than my Beretta 92FS. And possibly my BHP Israeli 9mm when the smith is done with it. Frank

You must be the only person in history to say the Beretta 9000 is the best 9MM. It was an abysmal failure and ugly as sin. The 92 is certainly one of the most iconic firearms in the 20th century, but everything since then has just gone downhill (excluding the awful 90-TWO). The PX4 is a good gun, but it's no 92FS. Racking the slide on a 92 feels like it's rolling on greased ball bearings.

 

[dawggunner]

CZ - 75
Walter - P5
S&W - 3906

I like my CZ 75, some say it's one of the best.

 

[sheepdawg]

The S&W 915, that's right I said it.

 

[Protected One]

Browning Hi Power....
then there's the rest.
