I will throw in a vote for the 26/27 size Glocks. When I first got my CHL 4 or so months ago I carried my 5" 1911, or my Glock 17 and could conceal quite easily in a MTAC. I decided I needed something more discreet so went ahead and picked up a 26. Great gun, 10+1 on your hip, easy to shoot, very easy to conceal since there is no butt of the gun to push out the tail of your shirt. I can easily carry all day and forget about it!

Another vote for the S&W sub compact. The M&P9c is my daily carry. Almost as easy to conceal as my Taurus CIA 651 snubbie. Its just a little longer in the back. Feels really good in my hand and shoots very well. I'd highly advise you to at least try one out. You'll be pleasantly surprised. Like the earlier poster said you also get a 50 dollar rebate and 2 extra clips. The 9c holds 12 +1 in a double stack magazine. Haven't fired the .40 or the .45 but if they are anything like the 9 they will be awesome as well.

+1 on the G26 I was going to look into the XD's, but went with the G26. The XD is slightly bulkier and heavier.

S&W CS45...
You will love it or you will hate it... but it does have the boring S&W reliability... just keeps shooting...
