If you keep it in glovebox and get pulled over, getting your registration out becomes a whole new ballgame

0) Ignore anyone that says you should ONLY get XYZ gun.
1) Go to a gun show or a store with a great selection.
2) Try the ‘feel’ of everything in sight. Keep in mind two guns of the same model but different caliber will feel different.
3) Take note of the top 2 to 4 guns you like best
4) find a range the rents or a friend with those modules and try them out
5) Check the internet to make sure those specific models don’t have flaws or issue
6) Buy
7) Practice

A used .38 long barrel S&W. Foolproof, cheap, accurate, deadly. $200. If you feel the need you can buy a speed loader. But for most purposes 6 rounds should do it.

At the risk of suggesting the bleeding obvious, a Glock compact (not necessarily a subcompact) e.g. Model 23 (.40 S&W).

Keep in the door pockets (I always make an extra copy for the other side door, and one for the house) or one of those little pouches that affix to the visor, with a cc: in the door slot.
No need to open the glovebox unless at your choice

As you do not expect to use it often, I recommend a good double action revolver in .38 or .357.
I suggest Smith & Wesson, Ruger, or Taurus. If it drops in value, it will not be by much.
.38 is relatively inexpensive and common, and can be used in any .357 revolver.

I have two, neither of which I would recommend to others even though they suit me well, a side by side .410 derringer shaped pistol and a Hungarian Makarov 9mm. I like both because my eyesight has developed to the point that I can’t shoot a handgun accurately any more. For some reason I can hit what I aim at with the Makarov (and nothing else I’ve tried) out to 50 feet and the little snake-eyes doesn’t require a lot of accuracy, just proximity.

A pencil barrel Smith and Wesson model 10? Sir, displays of common sense like that are frowned upon. I hope you’re happy now.

I was thinking about getting a couple of those.
Small .45s are kinda hard to shoot. But I’ve learned to do quite well after years of carrying my Kahr CW45.
