    Sm.Med.Large 9mm Group

    So I'm going to get 3 handguns, all 9mm, and I am hoping the same brand and would love it if they could accept some of the same magazines. I am not sure if that's feasible or not. The thing is I do want a small, very concealable, a medium size that could be concealed and a full sized for range and open carry outdoors. I was leaning towards CZ with a rami, compact and full sized. I'm not a fan of synthetic and really prefer metal. Just not a glock guy - I don't hate them I just don't care for them. Any other options but CZ meet that goal? I have a government size 9mm 1911 but the smaller versions seem hard to get.
    1. Compared to what?
    2. At what cost?
    3. What hard evidence do you have?

          Was just shooting 26, 19, 17... but also a CZ 75 Compact PCR. All nice. Shield is nice too.

          Pretty sweet though that all those Glocks and the PC Carbine could all use the same G17 mag. I am amazed how great the smaller Glocks shoot for me, but the G17 RTF frames are my favorite. They just point fast and shoot great.

            So if you have three sizes in 9mm what's it cost for everything?

              Since we're going off roster...
              Added:
              (subcompact) Sig P-224

              Just ensure that you are getting the later P229-1 for 9mm. P228, early P229, and P226 mags are slimmer than the later models (P226 stayed the same).

                Assuming that you purchase a P320 for a reasonable amount...

                $800 - Firearm
                $350 - Per exchange kit
                $35-40 - per additional Mag since exchange kits come with 1


                Really, all you need is a complete compact, a full size slide and a sub-compact grip with appropriate mags. The larger slides work just fine with the next size down grip.

                C to SC is .5" of a difference and not worth the price considering low gains.

                Compact

                    CZ Rami for compact/carry
                    CZ SP01 for range/owb carry

                    Or if roster isn't an issue to you
                    Sig 938 for carry
                    CZ Tactical sport

                    Why do you need 3? The compact/carry versions are going to be pretty similar

                      I know you mentioned 9mm only but I have a similar size group for my 1911’s.
                      Gov for open carry/ Commander medium and officer/defender size for concealed. And you can use full size mags in the officer/Defender they just stick out some.

                        (compact) SIG P-228 or P-229

                        You could add a P938 or P290RS as a Sig Subcompact, but it wouldn't have mag interchangeability with the larger Sigs.

                        Or, you could go:

                        Kahr P380 (9mm short)
                        Kahr PM9
                        Kahr CW9 or K9.......if you're a patient man. LOL

                            I would go with standard response of Glock 26, 19, and 17/34.

                            Another option is H&K: P2000sk, P2000, and P30/P30L/VP9. They all use the same body mag, just different lengths so the P2000 can take the P30/VP9 mags and the P2000sk can take mags from all three models.

                              Hk vp9 or p30
                              Hk p30L

                              All of them take the same magazines
