Here's one that never catches the fancy of the "high speed, low drag" crowd: the S&W 908.
It's a single-stack 9mm, the budget version of the S&W 3913. The factory cut some corners by leaving the slide and frame more squared than on the rounded 3913. It also has a single-sided safety, and plastic sights instead of steel ones. Other than that, it carries and shoots just like the more expensive 3913 and 3913LS.
These are highly underrated guns: they don't look "sexy", they're not adorned with tactical doodads, and they're thoroughly average in every respect. On the plus side, they put the bullets where you want them, they have a slim grip profile for easy concealment, and they're boringly reliable. Here's a perfectly serviceable and competent little carry gun that doesn't get a lot of fanfare due to its "budget" nature.
