Hammer fired 9mm under $600 (ish)

Featured Replies

Hey all.  I have one permit left that I have to use up soon, but am a little cash light right now.  Im looking for some recommendations for a hammer fired 9mm under about $600.  I'll pay a little more if needed, but at the moment, that is unfortunately the top of the budget.   I really prefer hammer fired pistols and like manual safety's, but da/sa is ok too.

 

I already have 1911 9mms, a USP 9f, and a Sig 229.

 

Thanks in advance 

Beretta 92FS is tried and true! I have the Inox version and never a hiccup!

The 92 inox is a beautiful gun!  I had 2 Beretta 92's about 20 years ago. They were accurate and reliable, but sold them off to buy other things.  Might be time for lucky number 3....

As a heads up,  so far I'm considering the fn fnx9, the sig 2020, and the cz p07, which I have read have all had their issues and have plastic safeties.  Also the cz75 series, which I hear good things about,  but have never fell in love with.  The HK p30 is in the running.  I shoot it ok, but the trigher is rougher and dosent feel as good compared to my USP9.

 

Would like a Sig p225 (or p225 a1) but think it will be out of the budget. 

 

Any ideas or info will be much appreciated!

 

Thanks

I own a Police Special 92fs & I love it.

The Sig 2022 is a very solid, and economical choice.

I have yet to drink the CZ cool-aid.

I have a CZ P-01 and love it.  

Hammer fired
De-cocker
SA/DA
Great ergos, for me

Nice find, that tangfolio is a looker!

 

Among those three, the Beretta is the best bang for the buck......Pun intended!:)

Get the Beretta, put wood grips on it and it will looks better then the Tanfoglio.

Totally agree with this.

Sig SP 2022 another great choice.

CZ gets my vote.   A used FNH FNP might be interesting.  On a real budget $200 you could consider a Star BM.   What about a Taurus PT1911?

Cz p01

I would highly recommend the FN FNX 9. I have the FNX 40 & really like it a lot, & have been considering getting the 9 also. Or I would also say the CZ 75, whether a full size or the compact, I have read many great reviews of them on a few different websites. One last suggestion is the Taurus PT 92. Again, I also really like my 92 that is well over 30 years old, & does not have the de-cocker lever. Any of these 3 DA/SA guns would be really great choices. 

Get the cz and let me try it? These are sleepers that everyone raves about.

Its not a sig, but could be awesomeness!

Not being a sig is a plus.

 

Silence! Minuscule minion!

A used FNH FNP would be a bargain and is a very nice gun.  Not sure about parts, mags availability, holsters, etc.. anymore, but it is a "budget" Sig.  The Compact is cool, too.

Thanks all. Looking at the cz p07 now

The P01 is pretty sweet, too.

I have the CZ 75 compact and the SP-01. Both are tack setters and fun to shoot. Zeke let’s figure a time and a place and you can shoot both.

First Tuesday of the month @GSSC

I’m a p-01 fan, factory sights are the worst.

just ordered a set of meprolight night sights.  

Might get another p-01 with a steel frame
