I used to carry a Kel-Tec P3AT (.380) in my front pocket as my CCW. I had an accident with a table saw a few months back and lost half my trigger finger, half my middle finger, and had serious damage to my ring and little finger. The surgeon was able to re-attach my trigger finger, and I have about 75% use of it. My little finger is pretty much useless due to severe nerve damage. I can still hold and fire a handgun pretty well, but it is hard to pull the trigger on anything that has a heavy trigger pull. I had to sell my Kel-Tec for this reason, plus my re-attached trigger finger was too fat to fit in the trigger guard all the way. I've been looking for something with a little lighter trigger pull than the Kel-Tec, which has a little more room in the trigger guard. I'd like to stay with a DAO/striker fired handgun, and might be interested in going to a little larger frame pistol than the Kel-Tec. I have a 1911 which I still shoot really well, but it is much too big for CC. I'd also be willing to get away from pocket carry if necessary.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a weapon for under $400 that might fit my criteria, and also any suggestions for another way to carry concealed besides my front pocket? Please help.
