Do you want vintage, modern, or ultra-modern?

Vintage: Luger P-08, Walther P-38, Colt 1911-A1 in 9mm (Colt made 'em, good luck finding one), Tokarev (retch, vomit, blech, crap guns), Polish Radom, many others

Modern: Taurus 918, Firestar, Astra makes a single-stack but I'm blank on the name, Sig 228, European Sig 220's can be had in 9mm, Walther P9S

Ultra-modern: I believe S&W made a single stack Sigma in 9mm in a short production run, Glock has recently put out its' compact .45acp in a single-stack format and it may be followed by a 9mm, H&K P7M8 (truly the best of the lot, though not at all cheap)

If you really dig the 1911 style, contact a custom maker. They probably can build a 9mm 1911 very easily (I am certain that there are still manufacturers producing 9mm barrels, mags, and frames), and if you hunt around, it won't be super-expensive. We have an outfit locally that does it (Dare Gun Room) and they make some very solid pieces.
