I'm looking for a 9mm handgun for the range, I love .45 but I'm going with 9mm because its cheaper to shoot while still being reasonable for defense. I've had a long love affair with M1911s and am considering getting an M1911 in 9mm, maybe something from STI, definitely a Springfield Loaded Target 9mm if I can find one, or a Kimber Stainless Target II. Recently though, the Springfield XD(M) Competition has caught my eye, its attractive in a way that few polymer pistols have managed to be. Its also easy for me to acquire as my local FFL has several in stock. So, should I wait on a 9mm 1911 or jump on the XD(M) Competition model?
