Of all time.....9mm greats

#1 Luger P-08 - its beauty is timeless. The most important 9mm of its era.

#2 BHP - started theHi capacity weapon craze. Still one of the best.

#3 Beretta 92 - The modern service 9mm. Ultra reliable. Solid as a rock.

#4 Glock 17 / 19 series - The modern plastic pistol. Ugly as hell but works in every battlefield condition.

#5 Walther P99 - quite possibly the most perfect 9mm pistol in the world. Plus Bond carries it.

The Sig P226 should be the official king of 9mm. But the top 5:
1. Sig 226 (& P228 by extension)
2. Sig 210
3. Browning HiPower
4. Glock 17
5. HK P7M8

ok... here's my two cents worth on this...

just my opinion (cuz that's all anyone can really give on a topic like this one)

1. Glock 19 - near perfect balance of size and firepower
2. Browning Hi Power - a classic, with great ergonomics and a double-stack mag
3. Sig P210 - setting standards for out-of-the-box accuracy
4. S&W 3913 - thin, light, accurate, reliable... what more could you ask for?
5. HK P7M8 - eccentric, accurate and wonderful quality

honorable mentions:

CZ 75 - great ergonomics; Sig P226 - cuz thousands of police cant be wrong; Beretta 92 - where would John Woo be without them?; Kahr - perhaps the ultimate hideout/backup pistol; Luger p-08 and p-38 - classics both

1. BHP
2. CZ75
3. Beretta92
4. XD9
5. Glock 19

Guns with hammers just feel better and are more re-assuring than striker-fired guns to me. The XD beats the Glock due to the altered grip angle that feels like a BHP.

1) Sig 210
2) Sig 225
3) Glock 19
4) Browning HiPower
5) Beretta 92

The Sig 225 in my experience has been one of the slickest carry pieces. The Glock 19 I think is the most useful of all the nines but not necessarily the best.

Ruger (Any model. INCLUDING the 9MM revolver)..
Browning Hi-Power.
:barf::barf:Glocks :barf::barf:
Berreta
H&K MP5 (I didn't see semi-auto mandatory around ) Because lets face it.. With a 9MM you NEED full auto

Just kidding. Anything is lethal. Some just more than others.
