If I’m breaking the rules feel free to kick my ass, but what would you recommend as a good beginner range pistol? I’d prefer it to be chambered in 9mm and around $400

Check the sticky or ask the QTDDTOT.

A used Glock 19. Your not breaking the rules it's literally what this board is for. If the Glock doesn't strike your fancy, consider an m&p9 2.0

I got a glock 43 as my first, wish I got the 19 for more effective practice.
Love the glock though, find a local range and try some rentals to see what you like. It's kind like buying a car, go use some stuff before you go out and buy
Gabriel Ward
Okay. Suck my balls.
Jack Thompson
I would strongly recommend a used PPQ
>few people shoot their guns with any frequency, so a used gun should still have most of its service life left
>ergonomics are excellent, grip is very comfy and the controls are easy to actuate, definitely superior than the Glock in this regard for 99% of shooters
>trigger is one of the best on the market, head and shoulders better than the M&P or Glock
>very rugged and reliable, would make for a great carry or nightstand gun down the road
>plenty of aftermarket for sights and magazines, the two things you would really have any reason to purchase in the future
Shouldn’t be hard to find one for $450 at gun shops/ online

Ruger Security 9 and a ton of ammo

Aw.
Get a ruger security 9

G19 so you have your first ND early, it'll scare you straight
Jaxon Sanchez
go with the S&W the SIG and H&K USP trade ins...there is also a glock 30(?) in .45 cal that the reviews say are brand new!
Landon Moore
Id suggest one of these bad boys

>all these g19 shills ITT
Op there are MUCH better options for a range gun
Kayden Moore
in the 400 dollar range your best bet is always going to be police surplus if you can find it, because they tend to work well and the US police don't practice much. Foreign military police surplus is a close second, but they often train more with their guns, and it shows.
Ryder Hill
>NDing ever
But yeah get a G19
Carson Green
Landon Cruz
Ryder Hughes
Used glock 17, 19 or 34. 19 if you think about carrying.
It’s just really easy to use and has a large aftermarket for magazines and parts
Jason Barnes
Yeah but for a beginner? Gotta shoot enough to know what you want. Something that's better for one person might not be worth the expense for a beginner
Daniel Sanchez
Then get a Hipoint C-9. The fixed barrel is more accurate than any new shooter, it will not train bad habits, and if you are actually willing to be seen with one at the range to practice, then you will know that this is the hobby for you.
Glocks are really terrible beginners guns.
Cooper Davis
>Then get a Hipoint C-9.
Hudson Kelly
He asked for a beginner's gun. That is a beginner's gun.
Austin Harris
>there's range guns much better than glocks
>well if you don't need something better than glock get a hi-point
Why one extreme to the next?

I like weapons with a safety so glocks are a no go for me; as are most ruger 9mills. I have a springfield XD that shoots .45s....would recommend

Honestly it doesnt matter what you start with if you really enjoy shooting you’ll get another pistol that fits you better. I think a glock 19 bought used is a good start. Its generic and reliable so youll know where you want to go from there. My first was a s&w 59
Nathan Garcia
Shut the fuck up. Just shut the fuck up before I make you wish you did.
Levi Jenkins
Go to a gun store and finger fuck some handguns. Pick one out that feels good in hand and is in your price range. It's hard to get a shitty 9mm handgun for beginners, unless you buy some subcompact.
Chase Perry
I'm going to kick your butt.

FNS or FN509.
A Glock with useful fighting pistol features that costs less. If you actually get into drills, you'll see why the actual ambidextrous controls are extremely helpful when you do one handed stuff. You also get full rails, front serrations, metal sights standard, and metal mags. Only glockshits think plastic mags in a handgun are a good idea...
Juan Reed
>Beginner's gun
>goes full tactitard
I think you're missing the point
Jacob Perry
Seconded, love the FNS and it's at a very similar price point
Eli Campbell
>Only glockshits think plastic mags
Glock mags are metal retard.
-t. HK chad. Paddle mag release is best. lmao-ing at all you retards still trying to figure out how to make ambidextrous handguns
James Ortiz
glock, springfield or S&W M&P
hard to go wrong with a 9mm. even hi points make decent 9mm's
Caleb Turner
>decent 9mm's
I dunno about that. Functional, sure. In the same way a 80's shitbox civic with holes in the floor is functional.
