Favorite 9mm gun?

Right now

It's my 3913LS, maybe next week when I get my CS9 that will be the new king of the hill. I've owned probably 20-25 9mm. The glock 19 is nice, as is the Hi power and HK USP9C. I just like thin in a carry gun and the 3913 has that, the cs9 should be more of a good thing.
 
I'm sure there are nicer guns out there. I've even handled and fired a couple like the USP that I definitely felt were "better" than my Bersa, but right now the Bersa Thunder 9 Ultra Compact is my favorite 9mm, because it's the one I have, and it was very affordable, and despite the fact that there are "nicer" 9mm handguns out there, I don't think there's one out there that offers a better value at the Bersa's price (about $300 new for mine).

It's DA/SA. The DA pull is smooth and not too heavy. It's accurate. The controls are easy to operate. The grip feels right. It's one of the most reliable semiauto handguns I own. My Bersa Thunder 9 Ultra Compact and my HS2000 (same Croatian pistol as the XD9) have never failed to feed with a wide variety of ammo. My brand new Springfield Armory 1911, by contrast, is the pickiest gun I own.

You may wonder why I picked the Bersa Thunder 9 UC over my HS2000/XD9 as my favorite 9mm. They're both excellent, but I prefer the Bersa as a carry weapon because it's more compact, and because I prefer to carry the decocked Bersa rather than the striker-fired HS2000/XD9. I know that striker fired pistols like the Glock and XD are "safe," but it's a matter of personal preference for me.
 
Ruger Ruger P-89 and Ruger P-94
They both eat whatever I feed them and have functioned without a glitch.
Also, they're fairly inexpensive used and you don't have to drink any Kool-Aid.
 
Another vote for the Glock 19.

IMHO the best 9mm. They are accurate, reliable, and practically indestructable. I carried it until I got my Glock 26.
 
Beretta 92fs it is mine house and range gun now since we went to sigs for duty quite awhile ago. I'm playing with the ideal of getting a small 9mm to replace my 642 that i carry off duty if and when i do I guess it will become my fav. just not sure what I want yet.

Be safe
