CZ 75 or Beretta 92.

CZ's bring you the control layout of a 1911, but with a DA/SA ability and 15+ rounds in the mag. Very well made and easy to shoot accurately.

Beretta gives you a very smooth, accurate shooter, 15+ rounds in the mag, and the added draw of being what our military carries.

If you feel part of the fun of owning a pistol is being able to shoot it all day at the range without getting sore, and you want something that will last and your kids may one day want it, either of these are winners.

Sigs are fine pistols, but lack the safety. If you're feeling adventurous, you might consider the Arex Rex Zero, it's pretty similar to a Sig with a safety attached.
