I am planning on buying my first pistol soon since I just turned 21 recently. Any recommendations? I am thinking either a G19 or G23 since I have smaller or hands or possibly an XD. I found a really good deal on a an XD .45 GAP, but I'm just worried that it will be too hard to find ammo for it, so I haven't pulled the trigger yet (see what I did there?). Anyways if you guys can recommend any good range guns for a newer shooter it would be much appreciated.
I'd stay away from the GAP unless you plan on loading your own. I've got a G19, and its a great pistol but Glock ergonomics leave something to be desired. Take a look at the S&W M&Ps. They fit the hand well. The Glock does have more parts and accessories available for it if you're the type to modify things.

Or just go buy a 1911. Eventually every gun guy will own one. A Browning Hi-power is another great pistol that gets overlooked since its old school and not made out of plastic, but I love mine.
