EAA witness. If you don't want a pocket gun, get a nice range and game gun. Dead reliable and strong. Lots of accessories and after market parts available to customize it.

Used 5" tacticalXD,fun gun.

I would agree the G19(which I need to get myself). 9mm revolver wouldn't be bad either. Stay away from HI-Point's though.

With the remaining $380 you can go buy a nice used EAA witness in a real caliber. :?

Or..... Try to find one of these used.

Hi Point??? RAAALLLPH!!!!!! HURRALLP!!! You can buy a nice Fortress boat anchor for about 1/3rd of what a Hi Point costs, and it will actually keep your boat in one spot, which is better than keeping your pants down around your ankles with an IWB carry Hi Point!!

~$440 http://www.galleryofguns.com/genie/Default.aspx?item=ACC45B&mfg=American+Classic

... use the other $60 fer a pair of big-boy pants. Image

sorry ... I'm just getting in touch with my "Seismic Sam side" ... that'd actually be a nice gun for the money, though!

I have 6 Glocks and they are all fantastic. But I think the 17 is “Glock Perfection”. Depending on your method of carry and body type you might consider the 19. I personally don’t see a much concealment advantage in the 26 vs the 19. Most people add the grip extension anyway.
I love it when a plan comes together!

True. I could tolerate a Hi-Power in 9mm :)

The Spanish did just that. They shoot great, and can be had on the used market for cheap.
