I prefer the 92FS for a full size nine over anything else, and you can get 17 round mags for it. However, it's difficult to argue with the G17 since you already have a Glock 9mm, and the mags are interchangeable.
My vote would be for a Sig 226
Doesn't make much difference witch 9mm I choose because only 10 rd mags are allowed in this wonderfull state..
Actually, that makes gun selection more important rather than less. If you "only" have ten rounds, you need the launching platform best suited to your hands, your shooting style, and your skills.Quote:

The Astra isn't the most accurate gun I've ever shot, but it feels great in my hand. The Bernardelli is very accurate, and almost as reliable as the Astra is. My .45 Witness is damn near perfect, as is my .40 Astra A-75.
You are right the platform does make a difference..the HiPower has always been good and the CZ75b is right up there also..
Tupperware, well I tried the Glock and didn't like it at all,the M&P is the one that I believe just might be the one,if I can get the trigger fixed..It has that wonderfull Mass trigger ,10 lbs,at the moment but soon it will be better..
The Glock 17 is a fine pistol and would be my personal choice.
glock 17 or 19
G 17. iT MAY NOT BE THE BEST OUT THERE BUT IT'S MY FAVORITE !:smt023
High capacity 9mm? The CZ 75 SP-01 has a 19-round magazine and shoots like a dream. Another one of my favorites (spent money on one) is the FN FNP-9 with its 16-round magazine.
Been an ardent XD supporter for a few years. Still great guns.
With increased trigger time, in the order of tens of thousands of rounds, my next gun will be an M&P 9mm.
Why?
First run of M&Ps I tried had HORRIBLE triggers. Latest few M&Ps I've tried, had MUCH better triggers.
XD: Great ergonomics, super reliable, accurate, crisp trigger, but long slow reset and huge over-travel, slightly higher bore axis.
Glock: Unsupported chamber less of an issue in 9mm... Poor, blocky ergonomics, super reliable, mushy trigger for some, short reset, short over-travel, low bore axis.
M&P: Adjustable ergonomics w/ backstraps, so-far-so-good reliability with reliable design, crisper smoother trigger in later models, very short reset, almost zero over-travel, and very low bore-axis...
The Smith is my next gun.

I shot an M&P a little while back. I really liked it. I don't think I'm going to get one any time soon but from what I've seen they seem to be holding up really well. The last 5-6 years Smith has really stepped up their quality on auto loaders. I used to not like any of them much. Great wheel guns though. Just about everyone I've seen the last few years they seem to be getting better and better. Especially at the prices they are going for.
Glock 17 enough said....
