Ruger makes a nice .22 pistol that is great for practice. I think it is called a .22/45. It has a 1911 .45 style grip. For a service gun, I would recommend Glock, Mauser, CZ, Sig, and Walther. I am kinda partial to the .40 SW, but .45 acp and .357 Sig are good too. They are a bit pricey, though. I have heard many good tings about the Ruger semiautomatic pistols. 9mm still works, if you get a good deal on the gun, but it is not as effective as the others I mentioned. I strongly recommend taking some shooting and safety courses. For concealed carry, you can get a used AMT Backup, a derringer, Makarov, or one of the Kel-Tecs.
