Greetings!  

I have a question about pistols.  I'm interested in picking up a new one for IDPA and home defense.  I have narrowed it down to three choices:  Beretta Centurion 92FS, HK USPc, or Steyr M series.  The Beretta would be in 9mm, but the HK or Steyr would be in 40 or 357sig.

The only reason the beretta is in there is the availability of 15 round mags.  I really don't feel that it is as strong or comfortable in my hand as the HK or Steyr, and I hate the trigger (sloppy), but some consideration has to be given for an extra 5 rounds in the gun.

Which would you choose?  Why?

Thanks for the advice!  This is going to be a big purchase for me, and I appreciate your thoughts!

I own a USP.45 compact too. Love it! Steyrs are real nice, but I have never actually shot their pistols.
