Hey guys, I am legal as of today for carrying a pistol. Took 10 weeks to get my permit, so now I am in the market to buy my first ever pistol.

I will be honest - I know nothing about what to look for when buying one. What I am looking for is something that is pretty easy to carry/conceal, not break the bank, and also have to use at home/car if needed.

I know zero about make/models or what caliber is best. Any help and suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
