Options for new pistols would be:
The Stoeger Cougar. Runs $400 but is more than just a good pistol, they're outstanding (but do have the DA/SA trigger setup that isn't for everyone, I prefer it myself). Cougars can be had in 9mm, .40sw, and .45acp. Smith and Wesson Sigma can be had for $300 new on sale and is available in 9mm and .40sw. Sigmas are not great, but a very good pistol (solid and reliable).

S&W 3rd gen
Ruger P series Both are very tough to beat for the money and available on the used market for pretty cheap. |

They're different than the previous SD series, which had black slide finish, front night sights, and triggers that were basically similar to the Sigmas but tuned for a lighter pull; the old SDs got the axe a couple of months ago. Here's a link to S&W's webpage about the SD VE's, although they're already under discussion in another thread: http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/w...2_757751_image

More votes for the SP2022, as many as I am allowed!
My step dad tried my SP2022 while we were shooting his Browning Hi Power (Chilean made?) He For wants one now, and he has been a big browing guy. For the price it can't not only be beat, easily matchs up with guns twice the cost (not better, but as good where the features are a bit better here, or a bit better there) |

A very good CC 9 for little cash:
SCCY CPX-1 or CPX2 with no safety |

A few years ago I would say an Argentine FM HI-Power, but I don't see much of them around anymore.
