I would say the Sig Sauer 239 in 9mm is an extremely reliable and accurate gun. It is used by many law enforcement agencies. I am sure it would be easy to find a great used one, maybe near the high-end of your budget. I put close to 2,000 rounds through this model and it always worked great. The 239 is very easy to take apart and since they are used by law enforcement I would imagine spare parts are readily available.

It also depends on you hand size. The 239 may be to small if you have big hands. I am not sure about the price difference and I have never used it, but the 229 model is larger.
