I like 1911's and Glocks. Your price will get you a brand new Glock that needs nothing. $500 will get you a cheap import 1911. I'd recommend a G19.

AZ ,

In my neck of the woods you can't buy a new Glock for under $535 before tax.

And for your info a RIA is not a cheap import 1911. It is a inexpensive 1911 that is made in the Phillipines and is of very good quality.

Evidently you have never owned or shot a RIA 1911or you would know this. I myself own to RIA 1911's and a Glock 26. What do you base your opinion on as I have based mine on having used and shot both.

I still own them to.

If you are considering a 1911 you can't go wrong with the RIA, even if you did find a problem there customer service is better than any other in the industry.

For $500, I'd buy a G23. You might need to put a little extra towards it, but it's worth it.

I just love spending other people's money!!

Glock 19... if you really need something smaller go with the Glock 26... both are great weapons, very reliable, and very accurate guns... I like carrying either gun, but in the summer carry the Glock 26 more.

+1 on Glock 19, awesome gun, (G26 if you really need to go small). The only thing I would add to the Glock is a houge Handall rubber grip for $15US.

Its already a comfortable gun to shoot, but the Houge Handall in my opnion makes it perfect.

Glocks are simple to use, easy to clean, and just plain work.

Two choices ....

XD 9sc / XD 40sc

or

Glock 19 / Glock 23

Depending if you favor the 9 or 40. The XD subcompact is hard to beat when you use the small mag. If you want something slightly bigger the G19/23 is hard to beat.
