The gun shop I work at gets one in every now and again.  They sell quickly when it hits the shelf.  Marines want the tactical rail I guess.

A local shop said he can get me a M9A1 NIB for $617.00 which I think is very fair. He says it should only take 3 or 4 days but we'll see when I go to pay for it in the morning. Thanks to everyone for the advice & help. I'll keep you posted!!

If you can't find an M9A1 look for a 92G-SD.  It will be more than $620, I'll warn you now.  The G-SD is the version with rail and the decocker, along with the heavier "Brigadier" slide.  The FS series is a SAFETY/Decocker.  Difference being the G lever returns to fire instead of locking down to safe.  Both the G-SD and M9A1 grips are textured different than a standard FS but have the same shape.  The Elite IA and some Elite IIs are the Vertec frame with a rail.

If you're looking for a Beretta series with a rail the 90-Two series is the 92 with a polymer frame or the PX4s.  the PX4s are closer to the $500 range, have a larger magazine, and are smaller than a 90 series.

The Elites and G-SD are not in producion but can be found, GunBroker has them occasionally.  PX4s are all over the place.

I've also heard really good things about the FNP series of pistols.  Keep wavering between the PX4 and FNP in 40.  Not that I'll afford it any time soon.

XD's are nice but I'm looking for a full size 9mm & I love the look & feel of the M9A1/92A1. I like the FNH FNP also but that's something I can get in .45acp & will eventually.

EAA also makes a very solid .45 full size. OBTW, I love my M+P and FNH, and Glock21.

for a full size 9, the M+P, and FN are outstanding. M9 is a tried and true 9mm for sure. Please post some pics when you get the right one for you.

So I go into the shop today with cash in hand & he say's "Oh I thought they had it but I was wrong let me call here & there & see". I came home empty handed!! I guess I'll just buy the FNH FNP in 9mm instead.
