Compact .45
I hate to say it, but it all depends... On what? Well...
Like all of the other threads like this, you will get many recommendations.
So what's my suggestion? Go to a show like the 1500 and hold every possible .45 or other caliber handgun you can and see what feels right.. Then come back with your top three or five favorites (that again fit in your price range) and ask your question again.
For me, I'm a huge Taurus fan. Why? For me it answers all 8 of the questions above and it feels great in my hands. Oh, and with the savings over the high priced guns, I'm still able to purchase ammo
I love my PT1911 .45,
my PT24/7 Pro DS 9mm and
my PT24/7 Pro CDS 9mm.

I hate to say it, but it all depends... On what? Well...
- What's your price point?
- How large or small are your hands?
- Do you have a preference between SA or DA?
- What's the purpose of it? (HD, SD, Fun)
- Do you want a low or medium mag capacity?
- Do you need or want a tactical rail? (for Light/Laser)
- How do you plan to carry? (IWB, OWB, Shoulder, Ankle)
- Are you looking for function or fashion (Dependable or nice and shiny with an expensive brand name*) *yes the expensive ones are also dependable they just cost more
