Here's my recommendation: Sig Sauer P938

Can't go wrong with a Sig.

+1!

I have the P238 HD with a Sig Laser. The difference are the caliber (P238 shoots .380 ACP, the newer P938 shoots 9mm. The barrel of the P938 is 1/2" longer. The height is the same. The grip is slightly deeper on the the P938, since 9mm cartridges are longer than .380 cartridges. Width is identical.

Photos of the P938 are hard to find since it's a relatively new pistol, so I'll post photos of the more established P238 with lasers.

And with the CrimsonTrace LaserGuard instead of the Sig laser:

Oh . . . and another big selling point for me, the Sig has REAL sights. Not just a milled imperceptible groove in the slides. And on MOST models, they're tritium night sights that glow amazingly bright in the dark.

The down side: Sigs are expensive.

And one more difference about the Sigs. It's one of the few small concealed carry pistols that are single-action, rather than double action. Downside, it has a safety (but you can always leave that in "fire" position).

And lastly, I've put Hogue rubber grips on it, replacing the side panels. A perfect feeling pistol for people with small hands.
