"Good" options ... meaning what? Quality, reliability, availability?
What purpose, that "truck" carry? If to save your life, I'd opt for something known to be those things (reliable, of good quality and generally available (ie, not relying on cheap surplus ammo)).
If it's a plinking thing, then practically any cheap option will work.
If self-defense and your life is the goal, I'd suggest a more mainstream option, in 9mm or larger caliber. A decent Ruger or larger S&W revolver is fairly rugged, as is a Marlin or Winchester lever-action rifle. What works for me: a CZ P01 9mm pistol that's utterly reliable; a KelTec P3AT for backup; and a Marlin 1894 .44mag lever-action rifle with 16" bbl.
YMMV.
