I was going to suggest the XD's, CZ's, or a pump action but you guys covered it.  I dont really like glocks personally, theyre actually a bit too light for me.  Right now all I own is a .357 magnum S&W with a six inch barrel.  It was one of my grandfathers and he left it to me.  Its insanely accurate and the longer barrel stabilizes the recoil a little.  Im waiting to buy my first until I move here soon.  Im going to get one of the .45 Baby Eagles, basically a variant of the cz from what I understand.
edit: haha, just saw what you posted couch.  The bottom one is the exact gun I have with the longer barrel.  I also have the smaller (4 inch) one which actually makes it small enough to conceal carry though its a hand cannon.  Its a 7 shot also which is kinda cool.
