I'm wanting to pick up a really nice 9mm for open carry and possibly some less than "formal" competition. I could see some production or limited class shooting as I approach retirement which is ~10 years away. Right now, I'm mainly into recreational shooting and eliminating aggressive dogs while working my farm (which I could do with most handguns I currently own). I am a Glock'aholic so, a Gen 5 G34 is also under consideration as I want more sight radius than normal full-size pistols but, less weight than my 'nose heavy" G40 feral hog eliminator. Overall size is not a huge factor but, something to consider as I want it to be reasonable to carry holstered in an appropriate holster (i.e. no optically sighted suppressed light equipped pistols
).
I'm looking at something along the lines of a Dawson Super Tuned STI 2011 Edge 9mm or a CZ Target Sport Orange, or CZC or CGW tweaked 75 variant. I'm primarily looking at Single Action options but, something like the CZ with a very nice SA and a 'double strike' feature is under consideration as well. LEM and DAK triggers are doable but, I'm thinking I would stay with a Glock over those options.
How does the STI and CZ compare to each other if we stick at the ~$2k acquisition cost range? Am I overlooking something I should consider?
TIA,
Sid
