Gentlemen, as the title says I'm new to handguns. I've shot several over the years but never owned one. I'm now looking to finally purchase one and that's where I need your help. I'm pretty sure I'm looking for a 9mm because ammo is plentiful and the caliber will be something my wife can handle as well.
I'm looking for suggestions that fit the following:
Reliable [probably an older name brand (colt, s&w, glock, sig, colt, etc)as I'm not up on "new" brands]
Simple to breakdown / maintain
Ability to add a laser sight (my eyes aren't what they used to be)
Easy to handle (not too heavy / easy to aim)
Price tag +/- 500 - 600
This would be generally used as a range gun and HD (hopefully never used for that). I don't plan to carry it so a short barrel isn't a must.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
