“The METE SFX series by Canik introduces another striker-fired, polymer 9mm pistol into an already crowded market. But priced just over $500 and with a bunch of extras, I think the METE SFX is a clear winner. The gun performed well at the range, shot accurately, and feels great.” – Johnny B
“The METE SFT by Canik offers another striker-fired, polymer 9mm pistol in an already crowded market. But priced just over $500 and with a bunch of extras, I think it offers a nice choice for those that want to carry without spending a ton of money. The SFT would make a decent addition to any concealed carry setup.” – Johnny B.
“The venerable CZ-75 is a classic design that still serves in many militaries around the world…and it’s a great addition to any firearm collection. Chambered in 9mm, it offers an all-metal design with DA/SA operation. And its most modern version, the CZ 75B is a solid and well-built pistol with great ergonomics and a tough, dependable reputation. For that, we can’t recommend it enough.” – Travis Pike
The FN 509 is designed to be a duty weapon. This striker-fired 9mm is a nice gun packed with small features that add up to a lot. From interchangeable backstraps to an accessory rail, this gun has enough going for it to justify the price. While not a budget option, it’s a mid-tier that offers reliability and smooth shooting.
The FN 509 is a polymer pistol with a weight of around 26 ounces and a length measuring 7.4 inches. It features a fixed 3-dot sight system with combat-style sights and a capacity of 17 rounds (or 10-round mags available for states that require that). The trigger pull comes in around 5.5 to 7.7 pounds and it feels smooth while shooting. The gun is ambidextrous right out of the box, great for those lefties! The FN is a nice pistol that is worth the money.
“The CZ P-01 is a small pistol that doesn’t know it. Most smaller guns feel like small guns, but CZ found the magic though and built the P-01 so that it’s smaller but doesn’t feel like it. Between an excellent cold hammer-forged barrel and outstanding design, it is the most accurate compact I have in my safe. While there is an argument to be made that it isn’t as important as some might claim it is, the P-01 has a very low bore axis. Combined with the metal frame and it simply eats recoil. Everything about the P-01 adds up to being a great pistol.” – David Lane
The Smith & Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Metal builds on the previous M&P line with the addition of a lightweight, rigid metal frame that pushes the performance of that platform. A 4.25-inch barrel and 17-round capacity make for a balanced pistol that distributes the weight well for a low-recoil shooting experience. Excellent ergonomics and a good flat-faced trigger help shooters reach the accuracy and speed potential of the gun.
The Staccato XC is designed with speed and performance in mind. An integrated compensated barrel and 2.5-pound trigger help deliver a lightning-fast, low-recoil recoil shooting experience. The XC is hand-assembled to deliver speed, reliability, and outstanding accuracy, making it an excellent choice for competitive shooters or those looking for a top-tier home defense gun alike. All Staccato XC pistols come optics-ready.
The Staccato XL blends speed, balance, and accuracy to deliver an extremely high-level performing pistol that is ready for competition or fun at the range. A Dawson Precision 5.4-inch barrel and Tool Less Recoil System combined with a light slide help create a fast cycling weapon that also benefits from a long sight radius. These features, combined with a crisp 2.5-pound trigger, make for an enjoyable and rewarding shooting experience.
The CZ 75 SP-01 takes the outstanding ergonomics and accuracy of the original CZ 75 up another notch. An extended beavertail, more aggressive checkering, and a Picatinny accessory rail come together to help tune the weight distribution and hand-feel of the gun. The decreased perceived recoil has helped this pistol make its mark in military and law enforcement use, as well as a favorite for competition and recreational shooters. With 19+1 rounds on tap and extreme reliability, the SP-01 is ready to tackle any job.
