  1. Sig P365 ranks 1st on the list of the best 9mm Pistols in the world. When the Sig p365 first came out, it was a game-changer. It is squeezed by a double stack’s capacity into a single-sized gun. It is small and light, so it’s easy to carry and comfortable for most shooters of all sizes. It is also a purpose-built concealed carry gun that comes in capacities of 10, 12, and even a 15-round extended magazine. The Sig 365 set a new definition for what a great concealed carry handgun can be – it quickly became the go-to 9mm for many shooters.


    If you are interested in other versions of the p365, they also have the p365 xl which has a larger capacity, and the Sig p365 SAS which has been slimmed and smoothed so as to not snag. The P365 is a great gun but is still a subcompact pistol, so it can be challenging to shoot compared to the more massive firearms on this list. With proper self-defense ammunition, the weapon can be a little snappy, so practice makes perfect. The award-winning P365 has redefined the micro-compact pistol category, quickly becoming one of the most coveted firearms in the industry.


    Pros:

    • Small and light
    • Excellent Capacity for Size
    • Includes Night Sights
    • Various Magazine Sizes

    Cons:

    • Snappy with full-power CCW ammo
    • Proprietary rail

  2. The HK VP9SK ranks 2nd on the list of the best 9mm Pistols in the world. It is also similar in size to competing subcompact pistols. With its 3.39-inch barrel, the HK has an overall length of 6.61 inches and a height of 4.57 inches, and that makes it slightly larger than the Glock G26 and significantly larger than the new micro-compact carry pistols like the SIG P365 and Springfield Hellcat. What sets the HK VP9SK apart from other subcompact and micro-compact 9mms, though, is build quality. From magazine to muzzle the HK is well-constructed using the best components. The tolerances are tight: There’s no slop in the slide, and every piece is neatly and precisely fitted into the next piece.


    You’ll find textures that look like little bananas on the grip of the HK VP9 series guns. This texturing surrounds the grip 360 degrees and it’s sufficient but it could be more aggressive. If you have sweat on your hands you will probably wish you had more aggressive texturing on the gun. This product is impressive because it has a lot of features and it is backed by a good reputation. Heckler & Koch VP Series handgun, HK VP9SK has all of the sought-after characteristics of larger frame VP pistols but in a more concealable design.


    Pros:

    • Multiple grip options
    • Excellent crisp trigger
    • Nice serrations in the slide
    • Rear Slide wings

    Cons:

    • Price is on the high end

  3. GLOCK 43X ranks 3rd on the list of the best 9mm Pistols in the world. It incorporates elements of the Slimline series such as the short trigger distance, a frame with a built-in beavertail as seen on the G43, and the G42, a reversible magazine catch. This model also offers an incredibly accurate, match-grade GLOCK Marksman Barrel (GMB) of the Gen5 series as well as the tough nDLC finish on the slide, as well as features precision-milled front serrations.


    The GLOCK 43X
    effectively increases the capacity of the G43 from 6 rounds to a 10+1 configuration without sacrificing too much in terms of concealability and carry comfort. This is done by creating a slightly taller and wider frame in order to increase the grip size. However, this maneuver brings with it its own complications. Magazines and holsters aren’t interchangeable and need to be specific to the firearm. Chambered in 9mm Luger the GLOCK 43X features a compact Slimline frame with a black slide with an nDLC finish. The 10-round magazine capacity makes it ideal for concealed carry. Designed for comfort, The G43X combines a compact-size grip length, a built-in beaver tail, and a subcompact-slim slide for a comfortably balanced, versatile grip that´s ideal for a variety of users.


    Pros:

    • Glock Reliability and Familiarity
    • Common Parts
    • Front Cocking Serrations

    Cons:

    • Unique Magazines and Holster
    • Larger than Competition

  4. Springfield Hellcat ranks 4th on the list of the best 9mm Pistols in the world. Designed to deliver the perfect balance, the new Springfield Armory Hellcat Pro is a compact pistol chambered in 9mm that offers 15+1 capacity in a smaller footprint than any other gun in its class. The compact 9mm packs in impressive capacity while still maintaining the ergonomic, slim profile of the original Hellcat for seamless concealability.


    The pistol features the U-Dot™ sight system, made up of high visibility tritium and luminescent front sight paired with a tactical rack U-notch rear. Springfield Hellcat provides a quick-to-engage sighting system ready for a wide range of lighting conditions and allows one-handed racking of the slide should the situation demand it. Ensuring you can mount the light or laser of your choice on the Hellcat Pro, the pistol features a versatile Picatinny rail on the dustcover portion of the frame. This longer section of the rail provides users the flexibility to deploy a wide range of accessories for varied applications and conditions.

    Pros:

    • Super High Capacity
    • Reliable
    • Accurate

    Cons:

    • A bit pricey
    • The Trigger is nice, but others are better for a single-action

  5. The Walther CCP M2 ranks 5th on the list of the best 9mm Pistols in the world. It is an attractive pistol and very popular. Like many, it’s a polymer frame, striker-fired gun, but the system uses Walthers Softcoil Technology. This system reduces the recoil and makes the CCP M2 a superbly soft shooter. The slide is ultra-easy to rack, and almost any shooter can handle the gun. The Walther CCP M2 is a single stack, a subcompact-sized handgun that is well-suited for concealed carry. The design is fantastic for people with small hands or reduced hand strength.


    The CCP – or Concealed Carry Pistol – is the first polymer pistol with Soft-coil gas technology. This technology improves the user’s experience by reducing overall felt recoil and allowing the slide to be easily manipulated regardless of hand strength. The CCP is also the most ergonomic and comfortable handgun in Walther’s dynamic concealed carry lineup. Tool-less takedown and a fixed barrel allow for easy cleaning and maintenance, making this one of the most accessible pistols available today. The Walther CCP M2 is hanging at a very affordable $399 right now. With additional popular features such as external safety, front, and rear slide serrations, and a reversible magazine release, the CCP M2 handgun is sure to become a valuable addition to your everyday carry.

      Pros:

      • Reduced Recoil System
      • Easy to Rack Slide
      • Ergonomic Design

      Cons:

      • Long Trigger Pull
      • Large for a Subcompact

    • The Ruger LCR 9mm is one of the few revolvers that is chambered in 9mm. It is a very modern revolver with a partial polymer frame that reduces weight without expensive metals like scandium. The LCR double-action trigger is fantastic, but the lack of a real rear sight, and the ultra-short barrel, make shooting accurately tricky. The Ruger LCR is very lightweight and easy to conceal. Snub nose revolvers require a lot of practice to master, and the low price of 9mm makes them easy to train and practice with. This gun is a thoroughly modern revolver without frills or nonsense.


      The majority of LCRs are chambered for rimmed cartridges, the traditional fodder for revolvers. The ejector on these guns lifts the spent cartridges out of the cylinder by pushing on the rims of the spent cases. Revolvers using this kind of system (typically chambered in .38 Special) were standard issues for most American police during the 20th century. However, the 9mm is a rimless cartridge, so the ejector has nothing to grab hold of. To remedy this in the 9mm LCR, the rear of the cylinder is relieved to make room for a star-shaped metal clip that holds five cartridges by their extractor grooves. The cartridges are held in perfect alignment so that the entire assembly can be loaded into the cylinder as a single unit. When the rounds have all been fired, the ejector pushes the clip out of the gun, taking all the spent brass with it in one efficient motion.


      Pros:

      • Excellent DA Trigger
      • Easy to Conceal
      • Comfortable to Carry

      Cons:

      • Poor Sights
      • Not Much to Upgrade

    • The Sig 226 has more than proven itself as a top-notch home defense weapon through its law enforcement and military uses. It is equipped with a DA/SA trigger system that requires a deliberate trigger pull for the first shot and light, and short follow-up shots. The P226’s weight and reliability make it an outstanding home defense weapon that’s very easy to shoot and handle. The controls are top-notch, and the modern variants incorporate a rail for a light, and of course, SIG night sights.

      The SIG Sauer P226 and its variants are in service with numerous law enforcement and military organizations worldwide. This pistol was designed for entry into the XM9 Service Pistol Trials (see also Joint Service Small Arms Program) that were held by the US Army in 1984 on behalf of the US armed forces to find a replacement for the M1911A1 and 24 other makes of the handgun in US military service. Only the Beretta 92SBF and the SIG P226 satisfactorily completed the trials. According to a GAO report, Beretta was awarded the M9 contract for the 92F due to a lower total package price. The P226 cost less per pistol than the 92F, but SIG's package price with magazines and spare parts was higher than Beretta's. The Navy SEALs, however, later chose to adopt the P226 as the P226 MK25 with special corrosion protection.


      Pros:

      • Very Easy to Control
      • Dependable and Reliable
      • Accurate

      Cons:

      • Poor for Concealed Carry
      • Expensive

    • TP9SF was designed with the idea of being the world’s superior handgun, after overcoming 60,000 rounds it has gained the title. As a firearm capable of participating in the Law Enforcement, Military, and Civilian worlds, it comes with a great number of improvements over others in the market. Starting with its FDE Finish and Black contrast parts, it definitely carries a magnificent, yet elegant look. While accomplishing the TP9SF also comes with interchangeable grip back straps, Reversible Magazine Catch, extremely comfortable grip textures, and an accessory rail.


      The external controls are placed routinely and distanced for a wide range of handlers for this full-size duty pistol. There are no external safeties except the trigger safety, and no loaded chamber indicator. The rear of the slide has cocking serrations and the front of the trigger guard is serrated with ridges. There is a Picattiny accessory rail on the underside of the front of the frame. This big gun with the grids and texture in the grip, the strong grip angle, and extra-crisp trigger, make the 9mm round feel like shooting a BB gun. Excellent quality, and made to order for accurate target shooting as well as fast-action shooting and training.


      Pros:

      • Very Reliable
      • Awesome Trigger
      • Affordable

      Cons:

      • Tall in the Hand
      • Ugly
      • One Series Comes with Single Magazine

    • Budget guns can be tricky. Seriously, they can be hard to get right and may result in poor QC and reliability issues. The Ruger Security 9 is one that breaks the mold. This pistol is nothing fancy, but it’s affordable, reliable, and thoroughly modern. The trigger is nothing to brag about, but is capable and won’t throw you off target. It is a full-sized gun, and it’s a comfortable shooting pistol. The trigger on the Security-9, despite being a double-action-only, is very light. Ruger calls this mechanism the "Secure Action" design, and it combines the trigger pull of the LCP with single-action, as it has a positive reset. It also has a hammer that provides a strong ignition force that has slide racking to make it much easier to slide.


      The Ruger Security-9, like the Ruger American Pistol and the SR-Series, has a polymer frame made out of glass-filled nylon. The Security-9 comes with 15-round magazines and will function with SR-Series magazines. Security-9 magazines will also function in the Ruger SR9c. The Ruger Security-9 does not feature the ambidexterity, finish and ergonomics of the SR-Series, however, it does feature several things the full-sized SR9 did not, including front cocking serrations and a standard Picatinny rail for accessories. However, takedown of the Security-9 is slightly more difficult since you have to remove a small takedown pin. Ruger also offers the Security-9 in different colors, such as flat dark earth, two-tone and light blue.


      Pros:

      • Affordable Gun and Magazines
      • Easy Shooting
      • Proven Ruger Secure Action

      Cons:

      • “Meh” Trigger
      • Limited Aftermarket

    • Suppose you want a fun 9mm at a great price then the Rock Island Armory G.I. Standard 9mm is a solid choice. The Rock Island Armory is a fun gun for collectors designed to tickle the fancy of World War historians and gun buffs. The sights are quite small, but the trigger is lovely, and a 9mm 1911’s recoil is quite soft. Every collection should have a 1911 and why not have one affordable all the way around. The G.I. Standard is designed to give you the two World Wars experience with G.I. standard controls. There is nothing fancy here, it’s a simple gun through and through.


      The frame and slide are built from 4140 steel and include button-rifled barrels. Plus, each pistol is hand-fitted and inspected to strict tolerances. RIA (Rock Island Armory) 1911s are derivative of the US Military G.I. M1911-A1, the standard-issue US Service pistol from 1911 to 1985. Most RIA models are targeted at the low-end price point of the 1911 pistol market and are basic entry-level MIL-SPEC versions of 1911. However, the RIA Tactical, Compact, and Match models offer additional higher-end features. The Compact model features a skeletonized hammer and beavertail grip safety, while the Tactical model also adds a target-grade hammer and trigger, as well as an ambidextrous safety and enhanced contrast combat sights. Armscor is an ISO 9001 certified-compliant company that manufactures Rock Island pistols using CNC (Computer Numerical Control) equipment.
