Another vote for Glock. I bought a 23 about 5 years ago and its been a great little gun. Never missfired, jammed, stovepiped, or anything like that. Mine rides in a holster whenever Im at the lease, gets muddy, dusty, bloody and used quite a bit. I once went a whole year without cleaning it at all and it never missed a beat. I did break the front sight off of it once when shooting pigs out of traps. I geuss it hit the cage when the gun cycled. Didnt even notice until I got home and went to clean the gun. 10 bucks and it was fixed. Get a gen3 though, the texture on the gen4 grips is no bueno.($.02)

XD compact.
But, it really depends on what feels right to you. I personably don't like the feel of a Glock. Doesn't mean their not a good gun.
Best advice, go shot some. Pick the one that feels bet to you.
If its for carry, then that changes the criteria. Reliability is very high on my list.

Yep, you can't put a safety on stupid either
Point an xD at your foot with a loaded chamber and pull the trigger and you will get the same result. Stupid doesn't change by name on the side of the slide.

My favorites are the XD 40 and SW 99 and M&P. All great pistols,but what it really boils down to is your max dollar allowance and ultimatley what feels comfortable to you and is the most user friendly.Not sure if Carter Country allows you to shoot some pistols before you buy .I know there are places out there like that and that would be in your neck of the woods.My best advise would just be to try a few out if you can.
