Hi Verk, sorry to hear about your troubles but well done for getting on with what you want to do!

My take would be this:

Get a Sig P226 or P228 and here is why I think it:

1) Single action / double action trigger
- Double 1 handed I find difficult but possible and single action is easy. Also, you can cock the hammer to go single action with one hand and your thumb, no problem
2) Very reliable pistol - Never will you be worried about it'll work
3) Decent mag. capacity (I like the MecGar 17rds for my 226)
4) lots of holsters to choose from
5) plenty of options for customising sights etc if you want something you can rack on clothing

Anyway, that's what I recommend, whatever you choose, I wish you much happy shooting!

ATB,

Scrummy
