I rather like the feel and handling of this one. It's a Sig Sauer P239, single stack 9mm.
Good handling characteristics. The previous model that this is based upon and replaced was designed as a carry pistol for the Swedish police.
The flat, 1.25 inch cross-section make it more suitable for concealed carry than the wider pistols.
I also like his one because of the decocker it has. Makes me feel better carrying with one chambered.

Re: A possible carry pistol
Nice looking pistol! I have a bit of an advantage when carrying concealed. Being a big guy I have no trouble concealing a full sized pistol. My current rotation includes a full sized 5" 1911, a Ruger SR9, and as soon as it's proven itself reliable I'll add in my Ruger SR45. If I could afford it I'd have my bucket list pistol as well, a Desert Eagle in .44 Magnum. I can even pull that big hog off concealed. :-D

The P239 is an excellent carry pistol.

Dang a Desert Eagle concealed? I guess Harry Callahan was able to conceal that big model 29 in a shoulder rig. Why not?

Re: A possible carry pistol
Harry is a big guy, and he wears a jacket, plus he has that badge in case the weapon accidently gets spotted.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
