    Recommend a 9mm Pistol

    I would like a recommendation for a 9mm pistol just for informal target shooting. I had been using my Radom but can no longer find a magazine for it. I am a very senior citizen and would like a gun that is just fun to shoot. I reload and use 125 grain lead bullets in the load. I have read about the Taurus 24/7 and thought this might be a possibility, but have never shot one. I would be grateful for all suggestions. TIA

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    Stoeger Cougar - same as a Beretta Cougar in 9MM
    Stoeger Cougar Double-Action, Auto-Loading Pistolx

    Nice firearm and reliable - can get for around $375 new at gun shops. My wife has one and loves it - I like it too.

    I suggest a Glock. I have several - feeds any type of ammo, utterly
    reliable, reasonable price and easy to shoot (good ergonomics, at least to me). I have a Glock 17 (full size 9MM) that I have put thousands of
    rounds through without so much as a burp.

    I would go for the CZ

    I have never been unhappy with any CZ I ever bought.

    Browning HiPower

    Bought it 30 years ago, who knows how many rounds? They feel good in your hand and really make the tin cans dance.

    I couldn't agree more. The Hi-Power is the best of the 9mm pistols.

    Triple K still offers an aftermarket Radom mag. May take some fiddling to get them to function right, but it's a lot less costly than a new pistol. Especially since you know and enjoy the one you already have.

    The high power is a great pistol to shoot, although the GLOCK 9mm is very easy to strip, clean and maintain and the model 17 is a great shooter.
