The only one I disagree with is the Glock. Don’t get me wrong, I love my Glocks, but for first 9mm I would recommend FN 509 tactical!! They’re amazing. Awesome in hand feel, lateral recoil, threaded barrel from the factory, 24 round mags from the factory. Like I said, not hating on Glocks, just prefer the feel of the FN!
Fair enough. I want an FN 509 MRD med as my next purchase. But, I'm actually in a ban state and so is op... he's not getting tactical goodies or reg cap mags for a handgun.
The only reason I suggest a Glock 19 as #1 is that when you diversify your handguns with the likes of CZ, FN, Sig etc, that Glock is still going to have a purpose. Parts are always available because there are so many around. I look at my glock like I look at my hammer, its just a tool. Put a good light and some night sights on it and call it done.
Also worth noting that in unfriendly jurisdictions, if you have to use a gun in self defense, a no frills gun might look better to a jury than a tactical space gun.
Yeah, I forgot about unfriendly states.... (sadness intensifying) 🥺
I agree with you there, parts availability and price are a def pro for Glocks! You put my beloved FNs in the same category with CZs...?? (Sad face) lol! Hammer comment checks out, have used my 21 as a hammer before!!! Haha
