Best all around 9mm

I love my M&P and have never shot a GLOCK but I'd still probably go with a GLOCK on reputation alone.

By the way this is not limited to polymer pistol- I'm talking ANY pistol/handgun.

Yep...still the same. As Mick pointed out earlier, a gen 3 G17 or G19 (preferably) is ideal.

I had one Glock "smithed" about 20 years ago, before there were aftermarket triggers and parts galore. Then I figured out how to do it myself. If the scenario is one you are expecting, then pick one and learn how to smith it yourself. The "lots of mags" makes the argument for or against metal/ploymner mags irrelevant. But, the metal mags are easier to maintain and tune, plus they could be repaired whereas repair of polymer mags is more difficult.

Ran Glocks for 20 years, M&P for 1.5 now. Being inside both and shooting about 150K through Glocks and 15k through M&Ps, I'd have to give the nod to the M&P.

G19 no doubt in my mind. Only reason I say that is because I'm yet to pick up a 17L.

To reiterate my earlier vote for Glock...

I had a model 19 years ago that I kept a documented round count on for the first few years I had it. After 10K rounds I stopped counting. I estimate I had a legitimate 15K rounds through it with zero malfunctions or repairs. Never even replaced the recoil spring.

I no longer own that handgun but I do own a model 17 that has been nothing but reliable for 500 rounds.

I've owned Ruger, S&W, CZ, Sig, Springfield, and several other 9mm handguns over the last 20 years or so. If I had to pick just one I would pick a Glock without a second thought.

Glocks have their place, good reliable, etc. But as I personally don't like the feel I'll put in a vote for the CZ SPO1 Phantom...

[Musashi]

I'll play along. I have a G19 and wouldn't part with it, ever. I also have a CZ P-01 that I love. If I had to pick only one it would be a difficult choice but it would be the P-01.

In before the G-Lock

Why NOT xd, Fnh, beretta, etc... Besides the longevity of the Glock what makes them superior in your opinion.

Wouldn't it be safe to say that pretty much all polymer pistols are made pretty equal these days?
