    Hi I am bidding on a S&W 9mm pistol. I am looking at the ammo for this gun and it hits me what kind of volosity do these rounds have? All I see is not 230 grain.What kind of knock down power do they have verses the old millitary 45 cal. semi-auto side arm? What is the best kind of ammo for practice and also for shooting in self defense?[?]

    So if you shoot the 9mm would you want something that opened up a bit more to transfer the phyical innersha into the object you shot? I understand a larger cal moves slower with more forse due to weight.I am guessing that a 9mm is not really such a good thing,mabey just a nice target shooting gun?

    I am looking into getting a good 9mm for personal defense and sport shooting. I am looking at the 24/7-9BP-17 by Taurus. Mostly I am looking into getting something that is durable and reliable. I am going to be looking into Glock and Kimbers. I dont have a whole lot to spend on this handgun so please lets keep the price under 500.00 . Thank you in advance!

    A HiPower with the magazine safety "fixed", slotted and tangent even better.

    I have owned many over the years but my all time favorite is my Sig P226. I don't have any personal experience with the 2022 but if its a Sig I think you will be OK.

    What are you planning to use the new gun for?
    That needs to be answered in order to narrow down the field of choices. Judging by the guns you mentioned it sounds to me like you want a new carry gun and of those listed I would give high marks to the Ruger SR9c Pro. Nice and compact, light weight, pretty decent sights, one of the best striker fired triggers I've felt, and reasonable accuracy.

    My favs are a Sig 228, Browning High Power.
    I've been shooting my Beretta 92FS.
    Had a 2022 a while back and it is a very good pistol.
    Still have a P-99 that came in in '94, like it.
    Had a HK compact and kicking myself for trading it off [xx(]
    There's a bunch of good 9mm,s out there. My suggestion is to go to a shop and handle some and see which ones feel best to you [;)]

    Go handle a S&W SD9VE. Very nice Pistol. Deals are out there on the older model Sigma's. With a trigger job these are an excellent value too. Also handle a Browning H-P and CZ-75, both balance and handle similar.

    Well, if you've got a Glock, I'd say there is no reason to get ANOTHER polymer frame striker-fired gun. IE, most of the ones you mentioned aren't really all that different.

    IMO CZ75 is as good as it gets in modern "service" type (ie all steel military/police) use 9mm pistols. This is top marks for range use, competition, or home defense. Its a bit heavy for CONCEALED carry.

    Sig p210 is still the last word in target type 9mm lugers, though expect to pay about $3000 for one. This one is really a bit too spendy and low capacity for carry or defense. . .but its about as nice as you're going to get for range use.

    If you want a carry gun in 9mm luger, Id take a look at one of the smaller "pocket" 9mms like the Kel-Tec P11 (and others). Those are about as carryable as a full caliber 9mm luger has ever been.
