i want to buy a new 9mm handgun because the ammo is so cheap which one of these would you pick
springfield compact xd
s&w m.p.
beretta px4 storm subcompact
i like the beretta for the 17rounds but i like the size of the mp and the xd if you have any one of these how do you like it thanks guys

i would buy a Glock 19 or 26....

but since that isnt on your list, it would be a toss up between the springfield or the S&W

I like the SA XD as it is a great gun.Have not owned a M&P but hear they are good guns.I have had my XD for a couple of year's without any problem's.The XD's usaually come with two mag's,a holster,and other gear.

I have a Steyr M9A1 I am considering selling if you are interested....

The M&P has a good feel in my hands but I've never shot the compact. I have the XD9 4" service which is a fantastic gun, it feels much better than the 3" XD9sc which feels like a small brick in my hands (of course I haven't actually shot one). Never warmed up to the PX4's.

Of the listed I'd reccomend the 4" XD9 or the compact M&P9. But it is indeed ultimately up to you and these are the opinions of someone you don't really know. FWIW.

there is an awesome new S&W called a MP9 Spec Ops. Awesome gun at a fair price. Also has a really cool threaded barrel. Buy it before the end of the year and get a $50 rebate.
