Just got my first generation Steyr m9-a1 and love it. Hard to believe that this gun isn't more popular except for the fact that there is no real advertisement. I live in northeast Georgia and consider myself a moderately certifiable gun-nut. I've used all major brands of guns and love this one so much that it's going to be my new duty weapon working security. Glad to of found a place to find info for such an amazing weapon. Phoenix
Welcome to the SteyrClub! Warning, they're addictive - Bubbits designs a fine weapon. The support from SteyrArms in Trussville makes it totally unique.
I am like you, Phoenix - my list of previously owned arms is a who's who of handguns (with the exception of Glock, that Sponge Bob trigger put me off the first time I picked one up). No matter what other 9mm I shot, I always thought about how it compared to the Steyr M9 first gen. Only the CZ 75 and HP were in competition(they were not striker fired) - everything else came up way short. So recently I went back to my real love and bought a M9 Gen 2.
