OK, so here's the setup. My buddy hit me up to get some help choosing a gun. Problem is, his taste and mine are vastly different and I don't know a whole lot about the type of things he's after.
His criteria is: 9mm, concealable, decent build quality, and under $400. His idea of concealable and mine are obviously different, because I conceal a GI style 1911 no problem. The only pistols I know of that come close are the M&P, XD, and USP. All are over $400 even used, assuming they can be found with the whole panic buying business going down. I think we ruled out the beretta nano already too.
I figured I'd lean on the knowledge base of the nation and see if someone's got any suggestions.
