Haven't decided but I'm looking at:
Sig P238 SS/Natural Grips (iffy on the .380 part and the single action only)
Sig P250 (Love the modular frame, but it's DOA...not sure if Single action only or DOA is better or worse)
Springfield XDm (ltwo modes simply by changing magazines is a nice feature)
Taurus 24/7 (Wondering about quality/reliablity, I have a Taurus Raging Hornet revolver but this is a different animal all together)
Debating basically 3 calibers....380, 9mm, and to a lesser extent .357 SIG (always been fascinated by this caliber..also finding selection of those limited in what I'm looking for)
Also don't care for the Ruger LCP's...I'm kind of picky about looks and if you know any of the guns above you'll understand the look I prefer.

Thanks in advance for any help.
Sig makes a really nice everything IMHO,but I have 4 Springfield xdm's full size and compact 9mm,compact .40,and a full size .45 and I wouldn't trade them.Great guns IMO,and so far will shoot anything I feed them.I reload my own ammo so I don't know about the russian steel cased stuff but I broke them in with white box winchester fmj ammo and they just simply work.Your milage may vary but I'm partial to single action only hand guns.

The wife's first pistol was a Ruger lcp and she keeps it in her purse or glove box but I was not impressed with it (I got her a J frame S&W .38 sp for ccw)but I see where it can be handy.I'm a big fan of Ruger too,having 2 SR9's and several others I just have a hard time shooting the lcp.
