My step father, ex-CIA and retired Lt Col in the Green Berets during Vietnam, used to carry a Walther PPK in .380. I asked him why not a .45 or even a 9mm. His response "son, there aren't too many elephants out there ..."
Moral? Get something that you could and would carry and conceal easily, not some super duper big bullet rig that will stay in your safe with your big bullets.
I like PPK sized pistols, you should also check out the Kahr PM series. Much slimmer than the Glock and comes in 9mm and 40 S&W.
