I have shot the fnx 45 suppressed with an osprey can. I can vouch it was a nice experience. I’d go with the vp9 out of your list, but you should look into berettas as well. Beretta actions don’t require a booster device with a suppressor.

The P320 is the Ar15 of the pistol world. You can do any number of combinations of pistols. I have 2 320's and they are awesome guns. IF you get one get the Gray guns trigger kit.

I have an M18 on the left and built my own version of the Spectre comp. Put in a PMM JTTC comp and barrel. Its as flat shooting as my buddies Staccato XC. I have around $1300 in it sans the SRO.

Shadow systems MR920 is my carry gun. I graduated with the CEO, who was the captain of the USMA pistol team and is a hell of a shooter. I also have the M&P and. Several Sigs and Glocks. They are all fine but the Shadow is extremely light and flat shooting. They also offer a big mil/vet discount.



Went to Cabela’s and they didn’t have the Sig XCarry so I ended up going with the Shadow Systems XR920 Elite. I think I’m going to like it.

I’ve been wanting a damn sig for a while but my impatient arse couldn’t wait

I don’t think you could go wrong with any of those.

I would go with the Sig for a few reasons...

1) if you get to where you don't like the tungsten grip, you can get an aluminium one or a OG style.

2) the FCU is the pistol. So you can buy an exchange kit and have another setup, like an M17 or even a subcompact.

3) it's a Sig and that's all you need. Also, if you don't like the large magwell you can get a low profile one from Sig and sell yours.

You should recognize the slide on the comp gun. Bought it from you.

I’ve always been a 1911 guy, but I decided to venture out and try something new. Bought a Glock 21, shot it, and sold it. Bought a HK Mark 23 and didn’t like it either. I picked up a M9 A3 a few months ago and haven’t touched my 1911’s since.

I’m a HK VP9 fan. The grip fits real good in my hand.

I found a nice Springfield loaded lightweight operator on GB this weekend. Been looking at a full size 9mm but a 45 acp came across for less than 1K OTD so I ough it.

I have the XR920 Combat with threaded barrel. It's been working great since broken in and it does need 150-200 rounds. I used some 124 and 147 rounds for breakin.

FYI Johnny Glocks has modified the new Glock Performance trigger to work with Shadow Systems if you ever go the trigger mod route.

I just received threaded barrel for my vp9! It’s my favorite gun to have with me and shoot. But, I love my sig x as well. The added weight and trigger make it such a sweet shooting gun. Can’t go wrong with either of those!
