First 9mm?

[strife]

I plan on being somewhat OCD about cleaing, so that wouldn't bother me.

I personally prefer heavier guns. I shot a few glocks, and they felt like a plastic toy gun to me.

Well you don't want the ruger then. Like the glocks the SR model rugers(and I think most rugers) are polymer based and weigh about the same as the glocks...

They are pretty light, although when you have 15 rounds in the mag, it's not exactly light... especially if you're going to put a couple boxes through it at a time.

If you're really not sure what you want, start making a list of features you want... How much you're willing to spend... do you want striker fired or an external hammer... etc. Once you make those decisions, you will get a better idea of what is available to you. There are a lot of good gun makers out there and they almost all make 9mm's
