Thinking I may break down and finally get something in 9mm

[DD977GM2]

Went shooting yesterday and got to shoot some fun 9mm firearms. My 2 older boys loved them and I am guessing it is time to breakdown and buy something in 9mm. I have sworn to myself that I will never buy anything in 9mm.

Any others have this dilemna?

I had the same issue some time back, the final deciding factor for me was the cost to shoot versus the larger calibers.

CZ makes the 75B in SA only...

My IDPA sidekick...

I have a CZ SPO1 that I really like.

I am thinking either an AR in 9mm or an SP89 that I have fired before. They would go along with all the fun toys I aready have.

You can't go wrong with Glock, Sig, or Beretta. Glocks are going to be the least expensive, and no matter how beat up, replace a couple springs and it will work as good as new. Beretta and Sig are a little more expensive, and maybe a little more on the Sig. I got my Sig 226 from a range that used it in their training classes for about 10 years. Externally its ugly as sin(nothing new grips, sights, and duracoat cant fix right?) but they had just replaced the barrel. I went ahead and replaced all the springs for about 30 bucks or so, and could not be happier with it! Shoots great, and has that classic Sig reliability. Not bad for a 250 dollar Sig! My Beretta 92 Shot great, never had a hickup, and was a fairly comfortable gun. downside is that when they wear out, its alot more expensive to get parts for them to "freshen" them up.

So, you're talking something in a rifle, not in a handgun. Is that correct?

Are we talking handguns or long guns?

You want inexpensive plinking fun, in 9mm? Get a High Point 995 carbine! Should be around $200 max, if you can find one. Be sure and get extra mags too, they're only 10 rounds, which is the biggest drawback to the HP carbines. Otherwise, they're reliable and accurate, and have a lifetime warranty. Put a cheap BSA red-dot from WalMart on it, and start having fun! Try the Big R Farm and Ranch stores in the area, they carry 'em.

Sure, there's better quality and prettier 9mm carbines, priced accordingly, but the HP's are great fun. Use the savings to buy more ammo.

Resist the urge and stick to your original promise to yourself. Or go ahead and get all sally'd up and get a 9mm. Didn't ever see John Wayne shoot'n a 9 did you? Stay in the man club!
