Speaking of bread, who makes the best 9mm pistol under $1000?

In my opinion? Two come to mind, both I've used, one I own.

Taurus PT911 - I did some target shooting with this one at the Rod and
Gun club a couple of months back. I like it - has a really nice feel
to it and seems to be a good general purpose weapon.

FN Herstal FNP-9: This one I own and I like it a lot. Has a very
nice feel to it and because I have large hands, the ability to swap
out the back stop was handy. When I sold my two Glocks, the local
gunsmith recommended this one. It's a good choice for carry purposes
as it fits really nicely into my tuck holster.

Gun Tests sez:

Taurus Millennium PT111, $367, and PT911, $508. Don’t Buy.

FNP-9 Gun Tests gave it a C- for its ammo handling problems and lousy
trigger.

Apparently Tom prefers the eTec model pistols.

There are a number of very good 9mm pistols out there. Taurus never
comes to mind and FN's are second to third rate, and overpriced, too.


Glock makes a selection of 9 mm, and if you don't want a thumb safety,
they're pretty damned good. Springfield's XD's are very good, as are
SIGs, and CZ's.

Boars Head of course.

I will put the FNP9 on my list to investigate. A quick read says it has
a good trigger, SA DA, Decocker, Hi Cap magazines. Good to carry but not
so good on the range for distance beyond 7 meteres.

If they hadn't quit making them, I would have said Best's Kosher.
I read that when Sara Lee stopped Best's, Comiskey Park went to Vienna
Beef.
Vienna Beef was always a Chicago hot dog stand favorite, but I don't
recall seeing them packaged at the store. We always went with Best's.
Have to look for them.
I want to try the Hebrew National and Nathans too.
Wife bought some dogs this summer and they were flat terrible.
Told her not to buy any more until I find a suitable replacement for
Best's. So I've been suffering by sticking with brats until then.
Must say it hasn't been very painful.

I didn't play high school basketball, but I remember the coach at the
time had a piece of cardboard neatly taped to the top of the door to his
office. It lowered the "clearance" to 6'. There was a sign on it that
said, "If you can walk through without ducking, you're probably too
short to make this team!"

It was a joke, of course...but most of the players I remember were 6' plus.

Our short boy Tuskie could have been towel boy in the showers.

The coach was a fellow named Sam Bender...and "...Sam Bender left
Hillhouse after compiling a 435-145 record and capturing nine state
trophies and six New England championships in his 25 years."
