A little more specific? A carry or full size gun? Too many to choose from since as all of mine serve a purpose. My next carry gun will be a m&p 9c for the days i want a little more capacity than my shield. Next full size will be a sig p226 9mm, beautiful gun.
I like Ruger's SR series so maybe an SR9. I might also consider a 1911 but honestly, I haven't done enough research to be able to tell you which one. I'm kind of stuck in M&P mode. If the M&P45 hadn't dropped off the roster here in CA I would be looking at those.
Other brands?
G26, XD Service (aka: XD 4"), XDMc, P-938, Sig P229...
... Of course, for a good All-Around pistol, it's tough to beat the tried & true G19
Well, if I had to buy something, and it's not a Smith & Wesson, and it's not a revolver, I'd buy 3 cans of clams, 1 bottle of clam juice, 6 white potatoes, 1 large onion, 3 stalks of celery, 1 quart of half & half, and make a big pot of clam chowder. That's that.
