Just applied for my firearms permit in NJ... I have 2-3 months to decide what to buy according to the woman at the station.

I was thinking a 9mm for my first one and have been looking a lot at Sigs.
I ideally want to stay in the sub-1k price range and would really like to be around $500-600. I looked at Sig's website and saw that they had some nice stuff... the P250 interests me but I am concerned that the interchangeable parts make it not only more complicated to a novice (although the set it and forget it mentality would probably ensue) but it might make for more potential problem points. I really like the look of the P220 Match Elite but I think that is a bit above what I need at the moment.

Can anyone recommend a 9mm in that relative price point? I'd really like something with a steel body like the P220 with the same type of contrasting black grips.

Open to any suggestions!
