You have too much analysis and too little practical experience to judge properly.
Even if you have a manual safety you must remember to put it on. Nothing is fool proof.
Your trigger finger in on the rail of the weapon until you point it at something you are OK with destroying. Period...

edit: I have ordered from policeguns.com - Clydes Armory. Got an HK P2000SK from them. Nice. Fast shipping- this was 2.5yrs ago.
Like Buds the quoted prices are with a 3% cash discount. Seems...
Very good responses, folks.
I posted this on many gun boards.
I'll pull together every suggestion then edit my 1st post and slap a bunch of links in when I get the time.
And yeah- handgun feel is very subjective. At least this will point a newbie with small hands in the right directions.
I have small hands. Such is life. I've seen threads start and putter out without every option being mentioned.
I'll mention what I know and if I missed some let me know.
I lean more towards ccw guns and therefore they should be able to control with 1 small hand if required. Most larger...
People often go through or have several CCW guns and change them out according to dress type and weather.
You have to be confident in the gun. You have to take it with you all the time.
Get the one you feel you like the most and adapt to it.

I could swear they stated he wasn't hit- in the Court TV show. <shrug>
But I was thinking even by accident he would have gotten hit at least once. Glad to know they hit him at least once!
Hmm. I recall the guy who got tased while he was sitting in the pick-up truck. He just opened the...
My Tivo recorded many episodes of Under Fire on Court TV
I watched quite a few at once.
They never get in depth or even mention calibers or types of guns.
However, what I came away with was that "routine" traffic stops can get very dangerous very quickly for a Cop.
Also, people...
John,
You seen like a pretty analytical guy.
There are lies, damn lies and then there are statistics, right?
I suggest you read a few books like this:

The stats don't matter...
I got the active carry shoulder harness which actually may work well. The smart carry should come tomorrow or Sat.
Regardless, when I'm dressed up at least I now have 'instant' gun access.
Went to local shop JUST to feel out some guns as they are usually VERY over priced.
Looked at Kahr and even Rohrbaugh. Looked at the pricey 340 S&W 357 magnum. Looked cool, lightweight, but darn...
Considering this isn't my primary carry I didn't want to go that high.
I liked the kid who...
So, I love my HK P2000SK. The VMII is great with an untucked shirt.
I carry ALL the time with it when I am dressed casual.
However, I have been sticking the gun in my briefcase when I dress up.
This is less than ideal, of course.
I do have the deep clips for the VMII that go on...
I think it totally depends on body type and mode of dress. I carry my P2000SK with a 13rd mag and Xgrip giving it the same grip as the regular 2000, but slightly shorter barrel. The benefit is longer grip which should be easier to grab. I carry IWB with VMII. You can shoot it at the range...
Josh,
Why don't you order from the 'net?
I get GD from
http://ammunitiontogo.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=23_61_119&sort=products_sort_order&filter_id=24
And practice ammo from http://www.ammoman.com/webstore_9mm.htm which includes shipping.
Haven't had a problem yet. Locally, it's...
