Recommended 9mm

The Springfield XD9 subcompact is an excellent choice.

Some will say XD'S some will say glocks (same as hi points) but you have to go with what feels right to you and I think it will prob be an XD

I love bacon...but I would recommend the Glock 26 with a model 19 magazine and an A&G Grip Spacer, giving you a full-sized grip, but without the heel dig that compact and full-sized Glock grips give you.

Seriously, though...if you're considering a 9mm...would a .40 be a better choice?

Glock 19. nuf said.

With the mag extension the 26 is a long as a 19. It's hard to beat a Glock 19

Some really good advise and recommendations here, but if I read your post right, I think you are saying that the .40 is a little more recoil than you're comfortable with. I'm not sure that going to a 9mm in a smaller package is going to fix the problem. Going to a smaller gun is not going to fix you're "tracking" problem. I would suggest that you shoot a 9mm G19 and that might answer all of your problems. If that works then you might look at one of the various subcompacts.

Get a budget you want to spend and buy the best one for your money. There are alot of good used 9mm out there, be patient ad wait for the right one.

I hate glocks, but the compact versionsare easy to carry and they are decently reliable

im a fan of xd or xdm in sc for 9mm.you should try a few for yourself to see what you like,like others here if you have a g23 just put the 9mm kit on it and carry it.each to their own.
