We have one in 9mm. It's my favorite of our pistols. Better carry option? That's only up to the person. I can carry ours all day, and the only issue I ever have is the mag release digs into my skin a bit. Stiff belt and a good holster, and the only time the PX4C isn't comfortable is, of all weird I things, with one particular pair of pants. We tried a dozen different guns in our price range before picking this one. We picked on grip comfort finally, and since then, I've realized I prefer the DA/SA action, love the grip angle, size of the grip (not quite long enough for a full 3 fingers for my hands, but recoil is so light it doesn't matter), and how easy it is to field strip. It's far more accurate than I, and as long as there is no limp wristing, it never misses a beat.
