I'd bet the IWI Masada is next
I bought a commercial M9 this last spring, finally, and fell hard for DA/SA, followed it with a 92 Compact about six weeks later. I carry that compact pretty much all the time now. Both my 92 series are influenced some by Langdon in each has a set of G10 grips, G kits, and 14# hammer springs. I carry the compact more than anything else right now. It's main problem is it's still a pretty long barrel for appendix carry, and when I get serious about buying another new pistol, I think a PX4 compact will be it.
It's taken a bit to warm up to the feel of it, but for the price, I think they're worth a shot.
The SIG p239. One of the best SIGs ever made, a perfect CC gun, great ergonomics. A joy to shoot.
The Ruger American Pistol in 9mm is now as low as $290 at CDNN. From all accounts it's not a bad handgun, but it seems to have quickly disappeared in the sea of polymer 9mm's currently swamping the market.
The SIG/Mauser M2 comes to mind...Completely disappeared.
I'll have to chime in with the Browning Hi-Powers. Used to be one of my favorites, would love to have one by Yost or Novak.
I don't think those were ever on radar. At least not in the last 20 years. I don't know a single gun store that carried them. One store would get surplus in and another would occasionally get a new one which would sit for a year or two before disappearing.
They had a cult following but certainly not on the radar
HighPowers are a bit like Lugers; some are far more desirable/valuable than others. They became expensive, and were single action. But they feel good in the hand, and shoot really straight.
Yeah, Steyrs are a mystery. The fact that they only imported 10 round mags for the Glock 19-sized model was one issue, and they weren't stone reliable. I had two, and took a beating trading both of them. The one shop had my gun for a year.
Anything Remington has had a smell of death to it; not sure how their 1911s are.
