Hey, you guys said shiny, not cheap. But if you're a little more budget concious:
Edit: JESUS! Teh oversizedness! Insert picture of Sig Sauer P226 Here.
Might not be that shiny, but they are the finest name in swiss firearms.

I've just taken a new forum joke and rounded the bases.

Now you have to call it a "Deagle" and you're all set, ass

Trig - in Florida, there is no limit to what kind of firearm you can carry.
Its a concealed WEAPONS permit. If you were able to hide a 4ft sword, you could carry that with you. That being said, my recommendations.

If you want a concealable pistol that is not full size but not a compact, try this:
hk p2000

Smaller version, the p2000sk - subcompact in .40 and 9mm

Also, I'm going to be in the Gainesville area this weekend. If you would like to get an opportunity to handle and fire a .40 p2000, let me know. You pick the range

Another excellent VERY concealable pistol is the Seecamp, if you can find one. They come in .32ACP, and I think theres a .380 variant.
A cheaper .380 that'll get the job done is a keltec .380. You can fit it in your back pants pocket - they make wallet holsters for it.

i dunno, i've used them quite a bit, and i think my p99 is at least equivalent to the USP, not including my personal bias. they're processed through the same proofhouse, by the way - have the same stamps on the frames
