There will be a million different suggestions about which to get, but none will be useful to you unless you narrow it down to a particular style that you want or need.

Start with your goals. What's the gun for? Is it going to be strictly a range gun or do you anticipate a mix of carry (or even just home defense) + range for practice?
i'd say likely a mix of everything...

after doing more research, i def want to stick with .40 or higher. looking to get one with higher capacity mag too.

i like the h&k p30 a lot... the DA is sick looking too, but may be a little much for my first.
