Many have already made some great choices as there are tons of 'subjective' correct answers. However, I think the S&W Sigma for $289 OTD is really hard to beat for CCW/HD purposes.

For a measly $200 I'd rather have a new auto.
I didn't know this was supposed to be a point of shame.The words of someone who's never had to endure financial hardship.
Thanks for setting me straight MachIVshooter. I'm sure those looking at budget guns live life to the most frugal, otherwise my comments wouldn't be so incredibly offensive to you. I certainly hope no one that thinks $200 is a lot of money doesn't have cable tv, smoke, drink, eat fast food, maintain a cell phone, or otherwise choose anything over the most basic option for anything other than a neccesity. If spending an extra $200 is a hardship, perhaps you shouldn't be purchasing a luxury item, and a handgun is most certainly a luxury item....unluess you find an edible one. It may also be helpful to consider the chances of needing food, clothing, shelter vs. needing to defend yourself from baddies and zombies, if funds are truly that tight.'

I'm sure your conservative republican friends would feel differently.
BTW I'm just assuming your MachIV is chambered in an H&R Pardner topped off with a BSA.
It's not a Mach IV, it's a .17 Rem (which actually hits Mach IV), and it's a 700 LVSF stainless with a Weaver V-16 UFCH. I also own a nice home on acreage, 8 vehicles and many firearms that exceed your $600 figure by more than a little. I didn't say I was hard-up; I just have more understanding for those who are because I am self made. I built my business from the ground up, had to earn everything I own.
Recommendations are useless. Everyone is going to recommend their favorite gun and there are a boatload of good 9mm's to choose from.
Stick with a quality brand. Handle/shoot as many as you can and choose the one that feels best in your hand. As you narrow down the list, Google search particular models to learn more about them.
I disagree! It seems to me that when somebody recommends a specific gun it's because it has worked well for them.I disagree on the first part totally. Unsupported recommendation without supporting it reasoning yes, but recommendations are good.
+2 Im getting a 2022 .40 on friday.+1 SP2022.
Easily, the best $400 NEW gun value going. A Sig for only $400? GET OUTTA HERE!
