    I'm feeling really lazy, so, what is the latest and greatest 9mm available right now?
    I'm looking for a range toy, which I could also carry.
    Barrel length 4"-5".
    Threaded.barrel
    Suppressor sights

    I currently have 3 9mm.
    G19
    XDm full size
    And a 709 slim, which is one of my many stashed around the house.

    I'm typically a .40 guy, but wanting another 9mm for some reason.

    ETA: Must be double stack, and hold minimum of 14 rounds.
    ETA2: Also trying to stay away from 1911 design.

    I just bought a M&P2.0 Compact yesterday. Fits my hand much better than my G19 and they come with four different backstraps. Might be worth your time. I can take a few pictures of them together if you want. I do not mind at all

    Edited, because you said threaded barrel...

    Further edited because you want suppressor height sights. Those would have to come from Dawson as an aftermarket part.

    Find a good gun store with a large variety of handguns and hold them, and If you have a range that you can try out different handguns you like, do that. There is a reason many people like different handguns, if you go on what one person or many say, it may not be suitable to your likes. Guns are often like cars and motorcycles, just because he might like it doesn't mean it's to your liking.

    Agreed, and excellent advice, but I want to have an idea of what I want to look at beforehand.

    These are standard height, but suppressor height sights can be added easily enough, and can be ordered from Dawson.

    Cool, I've just seen several people that buy on advise and then turn around and sell it because they didn't really like it. You also might check out reviews on any of said handguns.

    Another vote for the PPQ, I prefer the M1 version.

    Or go cheap with a PPX. Looks like a HiPoint forcefully mounted a Glock but shoots ok. Not a bad trigger at all.

    I really like the fit and finish of the FNX-9 series pistols. Quality seems great and feels good in the hand. The tactical version has a threaded barrel.

    My USP Tactical 9mm is the sweetness. Threaded barrel, tall adjustable sights, adjustable match trigger, 15rd magazines, tough as rocks, double & single action with ability to carry it cocked and locked like a 1911. Everything you love about the .45 USP Tactical but in 9mm.

    Just make sure you really get a USP Tactical and not the USP9 SD. Some dealers don't know the difference and send you the wrong model.

    The CZ suppressor line has all that you want. Be it the P01, SP01, CZ 75, P09 or P07 - all come with high sights and threaded barrels. Just very hard to find depending which one you choose. The P09 and P07 seem to be easiest to find in stock.
