Welcome to our forum.
BTW - I want to get a handgun. I haven't owned one in twenty years - what do you think of the Glock 26?

Glocks are excellent handguns, but not for me. I do not like the way they fit my hand and to be honest, I think they are very ugly. That is all subjective. I also agree with vlady regarding the concealed carry aspects of them. Here is an in-depth review of the Glock 26 by a highly-regarded firearms writer:http://www.remtek.com/arms/glock/model/9/26/index.htmI personally carry a Walther P-99. I absolutely LOVE this gun. I've never had a misfire, the ergonomics are second to none, and you can carry 17 rounds of 9mm in it (well, I can, I believe you're limited to 11 rounds in CA). Plus, it's the same gun 007 carries!Second choice would be the Springfield XD. I've owned one before and it is a great little gun with several redundant, passive safety features:http://www.springfield-armory.com/prod-xdpstl.shtmlPlease, feel free to holler if you have any other questions!

Hey Term, when I was in the showroom I thought we discussed this. I still say the Sig Sauer P229 is the one to have. That was the last sidearm they issued me when I was with the Gov't. and it was the best by far of any I had during my career. Or was it the 221? Heck, I don't remember now but in any event, Sig is the way to go.
Wisoki- Do you carry concealed because you have to or does your state also allow open carry? Minnesota allows either- which surprises me since we have such a nanny state mentality in most other ways.
