I'm looking for a 9mm for my wife she likes the 1911 layout but the 45acp is a little too much for her.
So any recommendations for a 9mm in the $1000 range ? |

Carried one for 15 years didn't even cross my mind . Because you didn't like it? Or just cause it didn't cross your mind? Is she OK with a full size pistol? What about the STI Spartan in 9MM? Or the STI Trojan? Personally, I'm holding out for the Springfield Trophy Match 9MM. |

I picked up an STI Trojan 9mm for my wife, and she loves it (and so do I). This. The 9mm STI Trojan appears to be the favorite of pistol action/competition shooters, who shoot way more rounds than any other group I've encountered. Based on their reports, I just bought a 9mm Trojan, and am outfitting it as a "girl gun" for training my daughter (15 yo). The Trojan comes with thin grips. I bought a short STI trigger and have fit that. Dawson Precision did a trigger job on it before shipping. I've put an Ed Brown big button mag release on it. I'm going to load some light recoil 9mm rounds for it, and have put a lighter 10 lb recoil spring in it, and also have bought an even lighter 9 lb spring, just in case. I also pu in an Aftec extractor, because those work perfectly for me (I have a 45 Trojan, that I've put thousands of rounds through in USPSA matches and pratice). |
