For an everyday carry piece?
Hands down, the HK P7 either in the PSP or M8 versions. Slim, safe, accurate and sexy.
Here's my 1980s vintage German Police issue PSP after a refinish with Parkerization and Cerakote.

Ultimately I'd strongly suggest that you buy a pistol based on how well it fits your hands and how well you shoot it. For context, I've owned the following 9mm pistols:
- Browning HiPower
- Walther PPS
- S&W M&P
- HK P7 PSP
I've shot a lot more and I sold most of the above list except for the P7 and the MP. I didn't set out to buy the M&P until I shot one in a competition stage sponsored my S&W...I shot it well, better that I would have shot it with my other guns...so I went out and bought one and have no regrets...it has a rubbery trigger and is pretty unrefined- but it fits me and I shoot it well...same with the P7.
The smoothest 9mm I've ever shot was a custom STI race gun-it was amazing but I'd never think about carrying one.
