Question Next gun purchase?

Undecided, but ideally something with a fairly slim grip.

Undecided between another 9mm or a .45 too.

Have a HK P2000SK for CCW so that is covered. Would be nice if the gun was fairly easy to CCW, but that is secondary to shooting nice, looking nice and essentially having a nice home defense/range gun. Prefer metal over poly for the next purchase.

Prefer < $1200 out the door.

What I've come up with...

CZ SP-01 Custom...

http://www.cz-usa.com/product_detail.php?id=74

Hi Power...

http://www.browning.com/products/catalog/firearms/detai...t_id=051&type_id=001

SIG 226 Elite Stainless...

http://www.sigarms.com/Products/ShowCatalogProductDetai...ryid=7&productid=169

EAA Witness Elite or Limited...

http://eaacorp.com/handguns-witness-elite-stock-TP.html

Dan Wesson CBOB...

http://www.cz-usa.com/product_detail.php?id=66

Maybe the SIG 220 Super Match

http://www.sigarms.com/Products/ShowCatalogProductDetai...yid=40&productid=160

Or another solid 1911 Colt, Springfield, S&W, STI...

I'd want the gun to look pretty, so I'd probably get the 'lower end' guns refinished in say hard chrome or a nice satin nickel or another nice looking finish.

Walther P99 A/S - most ergonomic handgun

My next gun will be a Beretta 92FS INOX - I've owned them over the years and miss having one now.

Well I just got my XD-45 Service and have to wait two more weeks before I can buy another handgun. The next gun I plan to buy is the Ruger Alaskan 454 Casull. After that my current buy list is, XD-9 Tactical, Glock 36 and maybe an M&P. Also looking at other compact 45's from Kimber and Para-Ordinance.

I want a bit of bling. I have practical 'plastic' already. Pizazz would be nice.

Sorta leaning towards a 45 now as I will get the P30 when it comes out around Sept.

Isn't everyone suppose to have a decent 1911 by law?

That Alaskan is sweet looking - I'd get a 44 mag version if I ever got 1, though.

I say go for the Sig P226

ETA: The SRT triggers on the 226 Elites are amazing

I'm partial to that too. I'm also a Sig fan.

If you want to stay with the 9mm, look at the Springfield EMP.

Love mine.

Whats the next gun for you?

1. Glock 19
2.
Another AR build. Probably a flat top.
3. edited to add: wood grips for the Bersa Thunder .380


Thats about it for a long while. My wife's visa will be approved soon, and well... there goes the cash flow. The ticket alone to go get her is about 2 grand.
