Depends what your requirements/needs are.  There are a ton of options out there.  My normal concealed carry is a .40 S&W sigma. 

[woodswalker]

With out knowing you or you skill level, I'd make the generic recommendation of either a 9mm semi-auto or a .38 special revolver.  Further dissection is difficult due to a large number of factors.

That said...I'd choose the medium power levels represented by the above choices and advise you to practice, practice and practice some more under widely varied conditions.  Keys are shot placement above about ALL else once things drop in the pot and MAKING the decision to do so.

LEARN the carry laws well, be prepared.

Good luck, Welcome and have fun!

For carry I would buy the Walther PPS in 9mm, I'm happy with mine!

I've had a few "run-ins" and very quickly as I really thought out scenarios, sold my 357 blackhawk and went to a 9mm.  High capacity clip gives you more tries

I have a Kimber Custom II 45 you could have for a granny Mark

need more info on what you are looking for my   for any "pistol" is the xdm the new 3.8 is very nice in 40s&W can't be beat in my eyes the only "pistol" i trust my life with every day.

for concealed carry i'd opt for a s&w snubby probably w/ a concealed hammer

You need two Para Ord P-14s in shoulder holsters, two kimber 45, pro carry two's in ankle holsters, a beretta P92 in a small of the back holster, and a derringer in a throat holstster.
you'll be fine
and a riot gun

Best option for someone new to concealed carry.

  Don't they make anything bigger?   

[Wenatcheejay]

How about a 454 Casull?


Really? If you are that curious then take a CCW class.
