    XDE is another option. Single stack, decocker/safety, 9mm. IIRC it might be more compact sized.

    That Storm sub compact looks like a pretty good option.

    I had one and i really regret selling it. Loved that gun

    One of my employees just bought one and I was at the range with him a couple days ago shooting it and it reminded me how much i miss mine haha

    Would it fit in your front pocket?

    Its a little wide to go in the front pocket but it will fit just fine. Even the subcompact is still a double stack.

    Also, its hard for me to judge handgun sizes cause im a big dude with big hands.. so some guns that seem really small to me and dont fit in my hand well, are still considered a little bigger to others.

    Yeah, that double stack mag may make it a bit to wide. That's why I love my Walther PPK, it's thin. A 9MM PPK would be great. Thanks for the info!

    I’ve got a Shield Performance 9mm that I carry and I love it. Light enough it doesn’t even weigh down my basketball shorts if I’m carrying

    It does. I had an XDS at one time. Was a good pistol. I do like that XDE, I just don't like Springfield for reasons I won't get into on this thread. That would be a solid option though because of the single stack man.

    I want a Sig 238, but just don't feel comfortable carrying a cocked and locked firearm. Really need that decocker.

    You could go old school and get a S&W 3913; they're a single stack w/a DA/SA trigger and decocker/safety. I have the larger, all stainless 5906 and it's an awesome shooter. The trigger reset in SA mode is crazy short the pull is quite crisp, too.

    I love my 5906; very accurate in SA mode, and I like the flexibility to carry it with the decocker down in full safe or just keep it in DA mode, depending on the occasion.

    A few things.

    One is when I holster the weapon I keep my thumb on the hammer so I know nothing is going off.

    I'm not gonna go through all, it's a person preferance. I carry appendix and that makes me really picky about things.

    Just keep yer booger hook and clothing off the bang switch and you wouldnt have any issues appendix w/ any pistol. I get where youre coming from but there isnt anything unsafe about carrying a reputable striker fired pistol appendix.

    This is why I carry a P07. Control and frankly a little bit of fear, lol.

    Absolutely love that pistol. Put some Tritium sights on mine. That pistol eats any ammo you feed it too.
