Looking to buy my first pistol, and I'm having difficulty

The 1911 was made to be .45 acp. Low capacity, large diameter round. If you're going to go 9mm, get something that actually holds a decent amount of it. Don't you dare get a doublestack 1911. The grip is just right in single stack, feels like shit double stacked

I like the 92fs okay, but I detest slide mounted safeties, and a lot of people hate the first heavy trigger pull

>>31958354
just get a glock 19 or actually go to a gun store and pick the one that feels the best in your hand

The square slide bugs the hell out of me.

I've shot a 75, and wasn't a big fan of it. Anything else you think I should look at?

This was several years ago anon, would have happened already

Fns9c is good, I like it more than the g19

>>31958482
Any CZ polymer pistol is good

I have pretty much all the classics and I would strongly recommend the 92 over a 1911.
It is cheaper to shoot and easier to use for a beginner. If you buy a 1911, get it in 45 or 10mm or something else silly. The 1911 is easy to fuck up while taking down, has a lower capacity while being heavier and lacks safety mechanisms that cater to newbs in my opinion.

It would also be worthwhile for you to buy a 22 semi auto pistol as it looks like 22 will remain cheap and plentiful for a while.

92FS is just the better gun for 99% of people.

>>31958354
Whichever one feels better in your hands and points itself naturally. Ergonomics uber alles.

If you are only picking from those 2... M9 in 9mm it's cheaper to shoot and learn, you can always buy another gun. Get your fundamental down then move on to other calibers and platform.

The 1911 has a manual and grip safety
How does it lack safety mechanisms

If you want a 9mm 1911 get a Colt Government or Springfield Range Officer. I would definitely say that a 9mm 1911 would be a better shooter and more fun at the range. Also, either of the models I suggested would retain good resale value if you decide you don't want it anymore.

The Beretta will be cheaper by a couple hundred bucks though. That's money that you could spend on ammo.

Not OP I'm also looking to buy a new pistol, a Jericho 941 is it worth it and how bad will it hurt my wallet.
