Kel-Tek 9mm, but figure in extra mags and enough ammo to prove reliability. Personally I think they are the best values. You could also consider used ruger da revolvers or 9mm autos but I have no experience. I wish you and your growing family the best.larry: I just wanted to say thank you for the recent show on budget handguns and safes.  I wrote you about the sccy a couple weeks ago and i am finding that i actually miss mine.  mine got sold to fund the purchase of a taurus 380 tcp for my wife to carry but i may have to fund another one in the near future. I wanted to thank you for the perspective of not being a gun snob which some people surely are.  I look forward to an update on which quick access safe you choose because i am in a similar situation.  I am leaning towards a couple of in wall safes to put in a downstairs closet and possibly another location.  I am leaning that direction because they would be harder to steal in the event of me not being home at the time of a break in.Sam: Hi, love the network, I listen on stitcher. Having had a kel tec pf9 and Eaa .357 revolver I would and have rely on these for personal, car, and home defense. With the better quality ammo the PF9 never gave me trouble at the range or with the defensive ammo I fed it. As for the EAA, I gave it the cheapest dirtiest ammo I could find because it was a wheel gun, and I hated it an wanted to break it to justify buying a "better" gun. I never broke it. Both of them have thousands of rounds by now and still run true. Another option I've never owned but would consider it the Maverick Pump 12ga @$300 it seems like a viable option.&n
