How about single stack, Single Action only with concealed hammer, sort of like a Colt 1903 on steroids. Imagine that in the caliber, barrel length and material of your choice.

I have a 4053 I can't bring myself to sell. 8 rounds of .40, smooth DAO trigger, hits point of aim every time. Not too big for concealed carry, relatively thin, never fails to function. It's a .40 in a .45 frame, not a .40 in a 9mm frame so I feel free to get the heaviest loads I can. It's my...

If parts get hard to find... well if you pistol breaks you can probably make more money selling the unbroken parts than whole.

I have a single stack 4053. My only .40. I should get rid of it but I can't bear to part with it. As nice a trigger as my S&W 66 shooting DA. Maybe better. Eight rounds in the mag, totally reliable and accurate. The single stack 4053 (and 4054) is built on a frame intended for .45/10mm. Not...

My poor search skills haven't revealed what recoil springs to use, anyone have that information handy?
