Default US Army to replace the M-9

Well, the ole Green Machine has decided that after 25 years that the Beretta M-9 9mm is on the way out of the door.

The Army has not yet released the new selection process, but what is known is that they are going to go with an off-the-shelf commercial product. Here is the list of known contenders:

Beretta 92A1 in 9mm
Beretta 96A1 in .40cal
Beretta Px4 in .45cal
Glock 17 in 9mm
Glock 22 in .40cal
Glock 37 in .45cal
H&K P2000 in either 9mm or .40cal
S&W M&P in 9mm
S&W M&P in .40cal
S&W M&P in .45cal
SIG-Saur P226 in 9mm
SIG-Sauer P229 in 9mm

Sadly, the only entry available from Colt is a single-action design and the Army is wanting double-action only.
