Ok guys, I've found my gun. I went back to the range today and tried a variety of 9mm pistols. I first tried a subcompact XD, then an H-K UPS-Sub - I really couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with them. I had no feel for the guns, and I went through about 25 rounds each with them.

Then I tried a Sig P239 - what a difference! It felt great and the aim was totally intuitive! I put a single bullet into it and it went exactly where I aimed! Super-nice! I tried rapid-firing 2-3 shots and they grouped within a few inches of each other, also where I aimed. I love this pistol! Once I get my x-mas bonus, I'm going to start seriously shopping for one.

Thanks for the advice!
