If you really want to get a nice compact 9mm then I would suggest a
Glock 19.  I have got a 17 and I love it.  If you've tried them and
don't like them then I can understand, but if you have never shot
one I would strongly urge you to try one.  Glocks are a truly unique
gun.  Shoot one, you'll see what I mean.

I worked at Discount Gun Mart in San Diego for a few months over
summer and I didn't sell too many Smith 9mm's.  They are not bad
guns, people just kept on buying 92F's and Glock's.  

Have you considered a 92F compact?  It is shorter but not really
thinner.  Capacity is 13+1.  The Glock 19 is 15+1. :-)

The whole decision should boil down also to your opinion.  Get the
gun that feels good in your hand once you narrow it down to a few
choices.  If it feels goofy in your hand then you'll shoot goofy.

Good luck.
