Looking for the best 9mm, single stack with a safety for carry purposes for under $1000. I've done research, but I wanted to get personal opinions from those who have preferences and personal knowledge.

Andddds go!

(THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!)

For universal every day carry a S&W shield is tough to beat and can be had with or without a manual safety.

If a 1911 is your thing I think Ruger just put out a carry sized 9mm

those who carry a 1911, do you carry with the hammer cocked?

$1000 is a huge budget for a 9mm. Just get a Shield.

Daughter got a P938 for graduation. I am not a fan of compacts but it is a sweet little gun.

Really thought I would end up with the Contour Carry, but it did not work out,

Yep. My CCW is a P938 and it's awesome. If you want to save a bunch of money and have more for ammo, belt, holster, etc. get a shield (have one of these also) and call it good.

Pro tip: if you can wait until Black Friday, Palmetto State Armory the last few years will run the 938 with night sights for ~$550 which is a steal of a price as it would usually be $700+. No gaurentee they will do it this year but I think they've done it 2 or 3 years in a row now. That's where I got mine and haven't looked back, great little gun.

Size wise, it felt good in your hand? One of my fears with the LCP9s is the feel in hand.

Try a Walther. My wife just got a walther CCP, and we both think it feels great with different sized hands. She did not like the LCP9.

Yes. That is the correct way to carry a 1911.

I've been pleased with my XDs. Not a manual safety, but the grip/trigger safety combo is good.
