Wanting a really accurate 9m/m.

OP: Have you considered a revolver? A S&W 929 holds 8 rounds (moon clip required), and is easily twice as accurate as a semi-auto at the same range. 1-1/2" groups at 10 yards are easy, and I'm not that good of a shot. I haven't gone 9 MM, but having a lot of fun with a 625 (.45 ACP).

I have a moon clip tool, and load up 100 or more rounds for a trip to the range. It takes less than 15 minutes. All the brass comes home with me, instead of losing 25% to 100% (outdoor) scattered about the range.

Revolvers are plenty accurate but I think you're selling autos short big time. My brother and I would go shooting at the farm and shoot down into a river about 40 yards almost straight down (no problem with ricochets because of the high bank opposite where we were shooting) and I would consistently hit leaves floating downstream with my Sig P220. And it isn't the most accurate auto I've seen. That would be a Ruger MkII with a 10" barrel and a competition trigger. It would shoot 1.5" groups at 50 yards shooting with a rest. I've been trying to swindle err... trade my friend for that gun for years. I have a Buckmark that shoots pretty well too. I had my wife shooting 5" groups at 25 yards with it in about half an hour and she had never shot a handgun before in her life.

How do you group semi autos all together like that?

I have plenty of semi auto 9mms as accurate as any revolver and I'm talking some very accurate revolvers.
 
I own several pistols that cost a lot more than what I am going to suggest

but with the parameters the OP laid out, I can and do recommend one of the CANNIK TP9 pistols

do a search here on the canik TP9 pistols and read the reviews from those who own them, you will see a lot of folks who will put down the guns but no one who owns one

I love smith revolvers, but have never liked the M&P series

my first experience with a Cannik tp9 was amassing, best factory trigger I have ever felt, shooting 1 hole groups at point of aim, I have owned most of the pistols recommended above, and they are good pistols, and I have had a lot of guest over to our farm range
and I have yet to introduce the CANNIK to anyone who did not fall in love with it

and they are getting to compare it to my Glock 17L race gun, Kimber 9mm 1911s, and a ruger American, Styer M9a1

I love the thee dot lollypop sights and you can pick up a TP9sa currently at the $300 price point, or a TP9sfx in the $550 range


the pistols are sighted for a six oclock hold

As you can see, lots of different answers! Including some of my own. But the problem is the guns we tell you about are the most accurate for US!!! They won't be the same for you. The only way to see if any gun is the most accurate for you is to go to a range that has the biggest variety of 9mm guns for rent and shoot them all. What makes a gun accurate for anyone is fit, trigger pull, weight, sights, and just how it feels. That will be different for everyone!!!

Haven't seen any for sale in a while so my suggestion would be a West German Sig P6. Originally made for various West German police departments but were sold when they upgraded to a different semi auto 9mm. Last one I did see was in the blue plastic box with two single stack mags for $450. Some may have worn finishes but my P6 outshoots my 92FS. Just a suggestion. Frank
 
Yeah ladder13; Been trying out a CZ since December of 2015. It's everything its cracked up to be and more. Accuracy's at the top of its attributes.

 
My go to competition pistol is a cz85 combat, if I do my part I can leave one ragged hole with my handloads, if you're a revolver shooter you can pick up a SIG with a dak trigger for relatively cheap, my 229 dak is scary accurate and smooth as butter, I wouldn't discount glocks either, I can practically drive nails with my bone stock glock 32 (.357 SIG)
