Default Need Suggestions for my next pistol

I currently own a SA XD .40 and have many interests in my next firearm, which includes:
  • Sig P229 .357
  • HK USP .45
  • HK P45
  • Walther P99 .40
  • SW M&P .40
  • Kimber KPD
  • SA 1911 Operator
  • Glock 20

This is to name a few. I am leaning towards the sig as my next firearm. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have and any additions you would make to my list of interests.

There are SOOO many guns missing from that list... lol

Ok, so other than the fact that I've never met a handgun I didn't like, I also second the PT-1911... It's a great gun, it's very economical, and shoots like a wet dream. I shot Koli's at a group shoot when I was thinking about buying one, and it was a pleasure to shoot. If I had the money to spend, I would go to my local enabler and pick one up right now... lol

I'd go with something in 9mm. Everything else is getting too expensive to shoot.
Check out a Sig P226 or P229, CZ75, or Beretta 92.

There is entirely too much tactical tupperware on that list.
Definitely get a 1911. Every gun nut should own one.

I personally own a P99 .40sw and love the gun, have never ever had a single problem with it. I like the PT1911 too, the only problem is finish is not the best nor is the customer service. Also I have heard of problems if you want to change the grips out. I personally am looking at the SW1911.(hopefully putting one on lay and wait in the next couple of weeks lol) But from what it seems every firearm you have listed are very good guns. I do love the HK line also. Are looking for a carry piece a range piece that would help to. Oh yeah by the way the P99 is very accurate like a 1911, at least mine is anyway.
