Not accurate. All listed guns are fine for you to purchase and own. Remember, compliance is only about what a dealer can sell and has nothing to do with what you can buy or own.
The only "pistols" you cant own are ones the run afoul of the AWB. That falls back to
C) a semiautomatic pistol that has an ability to accept a
detachable magazine and has at least 2 of--
``(i) an ammunition magazine that attaches to the pistol
outside of the pistol grip;
``(ii) a threaded barrel capable of accepting a barrel
extender, flash suppressor, forward handgrip, or silencer;
``(iii) a shroud that is attached to, or partially or
completely encircles, the barrel and that permits the shooter
to hold the firearm with the nontrigger hand without being
burned;
``(iv) a manufactured weight of 50 ounces or more when the
pistol is unloaded; and
``(v) a semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm
None of the guns I have seen listed in this thread so far are assault weapons so they are all "MA compliant" for you as the purchaser. Decide what you want and then go find one.
Try a older gen SW
I like my SW 39-2 and even though I have small hands the 4013 double stack feels nice and points well for me. If I found 3rd gen 5900 or 3900 for the deal I got on the 4013 I would have snagged one.

The Shield 9mm and G43 are the best options in my opinion.
Pic #1 is the Shield w/TLR-6
Pic #2 is a Ted Cori custom IWB holster
Pic #3 shows the size/width comparison for the Full Size M&P9 vs Shield 9mm vs Bodyguard 380

Ruger LC9s. The S means striker. Much better gun than the hammer fired LC9. The LC9s is similar to the Shield, but without S&W's low build quality. And unlike the Shield, no one makes a trigger kit for it because it's got a great, buttery trigger.

If hand fit is important to you (and you look like a big guy in your picture), then G43 and Kahr might be too small for you. Shield or LC9s will fit better and are excellent choices.

Walther PPS M2 is a great shooter. Perfect with talon grips. Also, $100 Walther rebate is good for purchases through 9/15.

DA/SA single stack your basically stuck with a 1911 style gun, Sig P-225 which i heard is hard to find. Or a S&W 3913 with is a nice classic no longer made though.
S&W 3913 there is one for sale (not by me) in the classifieds.

Both the p225 and p239 are on the EOPS list so pretty much any dealer can/will sell you one. First distributer I looked at had more P225s in stock than P239s. 2nd distributer about the same. 3rd distributer again, more p225s than p239s
I would say no real difference in availability. Should you want a p225, go into your LGS and ask them to get one for you.
