For a first gun, striker-fired pistols are recommended for their simplicity and consistent trigger pull. While single-stack 9mms like the M&P Shield are good for concealed carry, their snappiness can be challenging for new shooters. The Glock 19 is a solid all-around choice, but may require sight upgrades. The Sig Sauer P320 stands out for its modularity, allowing easy customization of frames and calibers, making it a top recommendation for beginners.

Modifying internal components on a self-defense carry gun, such as a Glock 23 with an aftermarket trigger shoe and Ghost connector, can lead to dangerous malfunctions.
