    Thanks for every ones input. I am spending a lot of time at the range this week. So far I probably shot about 500 rounds with many different guns. I'm really not looking for compact or sub compact. I need a gun for my business and home, first. As a first gun I'm going for a 9mm since its relatively cheaper to shoot and practice with.

    I forgot to mention, (might sound dumb) but the looks of a gun matter to me.. While Glocks reputation proceeds them they are just hideous. I would much rather look at and hold a piece of pure craftsmanship. I'm a believer in form follows function. I guess this is where the ability to customize a gun comes in to play.

    Oh thats easy, you want a 1911.
    "The 1911 is a collection of subsystems that must work together. Each part must be prepared and fit properly not only in and of itself, but also with regard to the other parts with which it must operate for the gun to function and appear as desired."
