I'd probably go w/ a G45. If I'm limited to the five choices on your list, I guess I'd go w/ the G19X.
I am a big fan of the P30 LEM, but I'm surprised you put that as a choice over a VP9.

Never been a fan of the VP9. Couldn't tell you why but just not. HK's should be hammer fired in my not so professional opinion.

Big fan of the G45, only recently picked up a G19X and haven’t shot it yet. From a practicality standpoint, the G45 is the winner between the two, but the 19XV narrows the gap.

Well my “battle belt” is set up with a P30 LEM so I had no choice.

I like my CZ P-10 OR. Put a Holosun 507C on it and it’s a very nice shooter.

Probably an M&P 2.0 or a Walther PDP variant. You've also got the P226X Carry and Beretta Centurion that I'd take over both, but out of that list probably the P320 for versatility and not really having experience with the Springfield Echelon.
To cheat a little less, I did handle a Gen 6 Glock 45 on Monday and it's the best feeling factory Glock I've ever handled.

Trick question... The answer is G45.
All the same benefits as the G19X, just without the 19X's front magwell nub that prevents compatibility with some Glock mags.

I like the P30 although not LEM. I also like the G45/G19X quite a lot.

Solved the mag compatibility issue, but now no optic cut.

Here's something cool. The Commander was the original.

My vote's not on your list, and I think it predates them all except the 1911: Beretta 92G Centurion. CZ also made a "Semi-Compact" version of the 75 with a shorter slide and full-length grip.
From your list I've gotta go with the P320 since it's the one I own and shoot the best.

I'm plenty pleased with my G45.

I just converted all my magazine base plates over.
