I say go to a gun store and feel 'em up, shoot them if you can (if you have a range that rents guns for range shooting, or has "test" guns). Guns, especially handguns, are a lot of personal preference. I was looking at a Glock 26 and ended up with an S&W MP9c (9mm compact) because it fit my hand perfectly. Shooting it is a joy.

Since that is all very off-topic: I send resumes to employers to make money. The great state of Maryland (and my previous employer) pay me for doing so. Blah unemployment. I'm doing audio engineering as a hobby in hopes that it will turn into a career. We shall see.
