I have both of what you are asking about. I would go with the 809, it features totally ambidextrous controls, changeable backstraps, field strip procedure is similar to Glock, and I happen to like hammer fired handguns. Plus, they still manufacture the 809. The 24/7 series is discontinued. I found the 809 slightly more accurate out of the box.
