Default Non Glock Polymer framed pistol's

I have sold my XD 40.... (good riddents) I was going to put the money into a rohrbaugh r9, but I have not had the opportunity to see one work and I just don't feel like dishing out 1k on something that may be useless. Then I looked into the EMP which looks like it may be problems.


So now I have been looking at these:

Sig SP2022 .40
Kimber KPD .40
Kahr TP4043 .40

Does anyone have any Pros or Cons they would like to share?

What problem/s were you having with the XD?

I've been reading really good things about some CZ guns. They come in all metal and some new ones are a polymer. definitely a good price on them as well. Perhaps worth looking into...

It was a bunch of things on the XD. Mostly aftermarket stuff TruGlo TFO's that fell apart, (I ended up fixing them myself after it came back from their repair department.) wolff guide rod & spring that did not make me very happy, And I basicly lost interest in it.

Why no Glocks? Have you ever tried or owned one?

I have a Taurus Millennium Pro, it has a polymer frame and stainless slide. Nice pistol very reliable so far and nice weight. Might wanna give one a whirl, and if you are coming to the shoot I think several people have versions of it.

I've got a Taurus 24/7 Pro .45 that's a hoot to shoot.

Though it's not on your list, check out the Walher P99 is you want a quality non-Glock (though I did like my XD when I had it).

I don't know anything about the Kimber or Sig polymer guns, but the Kahrs have a decent following, they can't be all that bad.

I have picked up dozens. I have never shot one. From the feel & look of how it is made... I believe it should cost no more than $200.

Smith M&P they make a 9mm .40 and .45
I own a few Glocks, and while i also wish they were only $200, i gladly spent almost $500 for any of them. My grandmother still uses the same tupperware she did when my dad was a kid, somethign to think about.

You should really shoot one before you go and say such things about them. They are a very good quality product and they are very nice. Dwhite and Pyrotek both have G34's and they are both very nice pistols. You really should shoot one first then decide if you dislike it or not.
