Wow, thanks for all the advice guys, this helps a ton. I think I'm narrowed down to a Glock (if it fits the bill) or a kel tec. I won't shy away from a nice little revolver either, probably a S&W 38 spec. if I can find a good deal.

I like the 38 spec. caliber because I shoot that a lot out of my S&W 686 so I'm comfortable with it. I'd like to stick to that or 9 mm but if I find a good deal on a 32 or a 380 I wouldn't pass it up.

I knew I came to the right place to ask, thanks guys. You all rock.
