P226, Shadow 1, Shadow 2, some of these will be hard to find.

Tanfoglio Stock 2 or Stock 2 extreme is a great amazing gun that would be great for competitions in the future too but it is a lot pricier

SADA has a hammer and are often metal frame they shoot smoother imo but slightly pricier and more moving parts.

Strikers are polymer and designed to be light for carry but as a result they recoil worse and often triggers don’t feel as nice
