All of the guns listed will get the job done. I have owned and shot them all (sold my Beretta M9) and all function great. As far as duability goes the 1911A1 and Beretta M9 (92F) are close as both are very durable and rugged. for smooth shooting the P-08 Luger hands down is the smoothest shooter followed by the P-38. If you have never shot one of these you need to they are great shooters.

If I had to pick one out of that group it would be the 1911A1.......easy choice.


I kinda wished I hadn't sold the Beretta.....maybe it's time for another.
