    Help pick my next SSE

    I'm trying to decide between two 9mm guns for one of my last SSE slots:

    HK USP Expert

    or

    Dan Wesson Pointman 9

    It would be used as just a range toy and the prices between the two are similar. I've been arguing back and forth with myself, but can't make a decision.

    Which one would you get?

    I would definitely go for the Dan Wesson PM-9. DW makes superb 1911s and having one in 9mm would make for a fine range gun. Minimal recoil. Accuracy.
    CZ 75D Compact, 75BD, 75B SA, 75B SP-01, 97B

        Third on the fabulous Dan Wesson.

        Fewer people are killed with all rifles each year (323 in 2011) than with shotguns (356), hammers and clubs (496), and hands and feet (728).

              I will isolate myself... the HK. Tons of 1911's out there.. 9mm, 45, whatever. The USP expert is one of it's kind, bombproof and pretty much guaranteed to shoot whatever you feed it. Although not a "Pointman", I did have a Springfield loaded 9mm for a short time... and decided that the 40oz and sharp edges were just not practical, considering I could shoot my Walther P99 JUST AS WELL at the time. This is the same reason I'm not keeping a CZ SP-01 in the stable... the weight does nothing for me, and it's 9mm, how much "recoil" does that even have anyway?

                    I have the PM 9 and it's a great firearm. But I as well am thinking of the Expert in 9mm. Don't have an HK.
                    Anyone have any feedback?

                              I ended up getting the USP Expert, which as it turned out was a financial mistake. I bought mine for $1400. Now an online dealer recently had over a dozen of them on sale for $700 after rebate. Well, I did get the free Streamlight from HK though.

                              Here she is sandwiched between a USP 9 and a P30LS:
