2k for an 7.5 FK BRNO and 2k for a couple of boxes of ammo

I know you were against CZ but a Compact Shadow 2 with RDS would be something that could be EDC and Range pretty well. Generally, I don't think EDC and Range are the same gun...

Another option is a Langdon Beretta 92 all decked out.

I can speak for these. I've got 2 now......

Oh and they are 10%off right now for 10 days.

I’m thinking of going a little higher. Maybe an Atlas Athena? Anyone shot one?

I've shot an Atlas and they are a dream. You're not gonna get into one for 4K though lol....

OP have you ever carried a heavy pistol as an everyday carry?

Yes, I carry a Sig p226 Nitron (E2) everyday. I love heavy guns. I have a great carry belt and holster. I still have to touch my gun when I’m carrying to make sure it’s there.

What Caliber do you like? Many good 9's and 45's. Really like the S&W M&P 5.7 (very thin plus set up for MOS and a tac driver), or The M&P line in general. They have far better triggers and not too light, not to heavy. Props to Springfield Armory as well. I know all of these are far less than your budget, but you can buy a lot of ammo with the difference. Same if you upgrade to the FNH FiveseveN MRD which is closer to your $4,000 budget, and on all of the aforementioned guns you can put a quality red dot on them. Yes, there are many in the $4,000 range that are excellent, like the Staccato's which are accurate and patterned after the 1911 in 9 and 45.

9mm is my caliber of choice with a little 357 mixed in.

Yeah I’ve increased my budget to around 6k.
