| Hi There | |
| Its down to choice, Price and what you want to shoot. | |
| is it Target or Practical.If you intend to go Glock the 17 will | |
| be best as it has a longer barrel than the Glock 19 & better | |
| Sight picture. | |
| A CZ SP01 shadow would be a really good choice. | |
| Hope this helps. | |

| You won't go wrong if you go for CZ. Glock pistols are very | |
| reliable, but not everybodys cup of tea. The 17 can be a bit | |
| chunky and rough to handle. I've always found the 19 to be a far | |
| more pleasurable pistol to shoot and hold. | |
| The Beretta 92FS is a superb pistol, but at over �1000 new it | |
| falls outside of the sensible price range imo. Heard good | |
| reports about Springfield Armoury pistols, but haven't held or | |
| fired any. | |
| Have a look at the pistols under the sportwaffen section of | |
| wwe.frankonia.de There are dealers here who deal with Frankonia, | |
| and now and again there are special deals and offers sent to the | |
| dealers. | |

| The 226 is a good gun. Feels quite chunky in the hands. Reliable | |
| enough too. Wouldn't be my cup of tea, but they have a very | |
| loyal following in the states. | |

| Hi Canon | |
| I have a Taurus PT99 which is made in Brazil ( Nearly Exact to | |
| the Beretta 92fs)& is a better pistol in my opinion as Beretta | |
| have adopted some of Taurus mods to the 92fs. The Taurus has a | |
| stronger hand guard & the frame safety & decocker is far better | |
| than the slide safety. | |
| You will pay around �750 new for a Taurus in Chrome & I can | |
| highly recommend this pistol. | |
| Im just back from the states & fired the Springfield & S$W M&P | |
| which are very similar to the glock. | |
| Remember if you buy something like a CZ SP01 SHADOW or Taurus | |
| PT99 your buying a quality pistol. | |
| Also remember you will want to buy extra Mags for these and the | |
| CZ is a lot more expensive that the Taurus. | |
| Also a Browning Hi Power is a really good choice. | |

| I have fired a couple of Taurus PT92's over the years, and I | |
| just couldn't warm to them in comparison to the Beretta 92's. | |
| The magazines on the Taurus pistols just didn't lock the slide | |
| when empty, and the fit of the Taurus pistols is (or at least | |
| was) sloppy in comparison to the Berettas. | |
| The price of either the PT92/PT99 or the Beretta 92FS is more | |
| than twice what you would pay in the States. You've heard the | |
| old saying you get what you pay for. Well we're not getting | |
| anything different than our American counterparts when we buy | |
| these pistols, so why the massive price differences? $600 would | |
| get you a new Beretta 92FS or M9 in America. Over here you're | |
| pushing $1700. More than �1000 of a difference. It's | |
| unjustifiable. | |
