I vote for the Springfield XD. They can go through every test that GLOCK puts theirs through. From what I have heard. And if I'm not mistaken, are actually outselling GLOCk.
I'd pick between plastic guns and metal framed guns. For metal framed, I'd get an Arcus Hi-Power copy, or from your list, a Beretta. For polymer, I'd only take a Glock if the price were extremely low, otherwise Springfield XD. That's from your list, of course. My choice would be the Steyr M9. If it had to be 9mm.

I seriously doubt that they are passing with flying colors and they are outselling Glock because they are cheaper..like Toyotas are cheaper than Mercedes Benzes
Like Jerry said, I've got a Springfield XD Sub Compact in 9mm which I've personally shown to him while he was taking a break from Guard Duty several months ago. Bought it as a CCW tool. I've shot several rounds through it and like the way it feels and handles.
