I have the itch, who am I kidding it never goes away, to pick up a new range toy. Must be optics & suppressor ready. I'm ok with having to put suppressor height sights on, but has to have a threaded barrel. Don't want anything heavy.
Recently picked up a M&P 2.0 4" and loving it. Should have kept my past M&Ps. Live & learn! Just a range toy so not looking to break the bank. Do not want a crap trigger, but doesn't need to be a match trigger either. Equal to the M&P trigger would be great. I prefer 4" ish barrel pistols as they seem to balance & feel best in my hands, but not opposed to 5" barrel. No single stack or 1911. Must be 9mm or 22LR. No Glocks or VP9 or Beretta or DA/SA |

If you can find a Springfield Echelon with a threaded barrel I'd recommend that.
It's a very comfortable pistol to shoot and the trigger is really nice for a striker fired gun. |

You like M&P's. So do I. I was thinking about one of these since I dont have a plastic .45.

Not a .22lr but almost. How about the Walther WMP?

Walther PDP.

Well, I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison....
|
OP, why not a threaded barrel for your M&P?
CZ P10 would be a solid host. |

New EE sucks! Bring back the old Equipment Exchange!

Take a look at the IWI Masada. Great pistol for the money. I love mine. It is available in the “tactical” model. Comes with threaded barrel, optics cut for the RMR footprint and has suppressor height sights. Can be had for $400-$450.

Have not purchased anything yet. Just trying to find something that excites me that is also not thousands of dollars.

View Quote It’s not budget, but it’s UNDER $900 (only $96 more than the Walther PDP at Palmetto St) so it doesn’t break the bank. That said, the Walthers are interesting to me. Budget though?
