Go with the XDM or Glock. But can I ask why the 17 over 19 only reason I ask is because the 17 is a little more bulky to carry. The 19 was my first carry piece.

I don't think I've posted pictures of the most recent pistol purchases I've made. I feel like sharing now. 
I got this Kimber a year ago today on my birthday as a gift for myself (and cuz my dad wanted me to so he can use it). 
I also got this XD 45 2 years ago on this day as well.
This year I'm hoping to get a revolver to add to my collection. Maybe a .357 or a .44.

A couple of the vids I was watching said the 17 was more versatile for home protection as well. I have heard really good things about the 19 tho.

Eh I would really say it's subjective the 17 has a longer sight radius which would probably be a tad if any bit easier to aim and you get two extra rounds but if that's the case you can buy a 17 mag for your 19.im not knocking the 17 by any means it's a great gun I just took concealabilty into the picture. I got a Glock 21 not too long ago and it's a pain trying to conceal cause it's so big.

^ pretty much everything Velle stated.
If a brand new shooter is looking for a first gun, I'd always recommend a glock 19.

Any of you guys have any experience with the S&W SD9 VE?
Would you put it on par with the glock in terms of quality and accuracy?

Had one got rid of it my girl has one tho and its accurate as hell. It has a heavy trigger that's about the only downfall I can think of. If you're getting it try to get it this week at academy it's 299.99

I have a trust, got 3 SBRs... haven't ordered a suppressor but it makes the process of getting your stamp really easy with the eforms.

Picked these two up yesterday as part of the inheritance from my Grandfather. Winchester 94-30-30 & Harrington & Richard's shotgun...still trying to figure out the model or reference #. First time owning a firearm so I'm looking to learn as much as I can since most of my boys are gun enthusiasts. Should be interesting since I had to convince my Lady that owning a gun now that we have the home was a Must.

I was in your spot almost 2 years ago. Researched ad nauseum and I came out of all of it with an XDm 9mm. Since then I've also shot the homies Smith n Wesson M&P, and the Bodyguard.
Very happy I went with the XDm for my first purchase.
Great first time pistol, nice trigger out the box, holds more than enough rounds, and fits in my hand perfectly.
Also comes with a bunch of extras, dope box to store/travel with, holster(yet to use mine), ammo speed loader, etc.

Beretta's (imo) are tricky. They have so many different variants that go for different prices.
From what I can tell, if it's a straight up 92 fs, they usually go for $500 around my way. If it's a vertec, brigadier, or SD, it's going to be a few more hundy than that.

[COLOR=#red]I agree with others in here. We are fortunate to have richiecotite in this forum. Knowledgeable for sure and continues to add to his knowledge/experience base as a shooter, collector, and reloader. He's also a good man, I've had the honor to go to a gun show with him. You are appreciated big homie! [/COLOR]

The Winchester is a lever action. I still want an over/under though. But I want to get more familiar with firearms in general before I make my 1st "purchase".
I hear you man, and I can't wait to get my feet wet with this one. Me being a complete novice with rifles, I watched some pretty kool videos on Youtube over the weekend and learned a good amount of knowledge.
