You might want to consider a .22 derringer. A .40 may be more gun than you can handle.
ouch..
Picked up the S&W MP .40c! Thanks for all the input!
Springfield Armory EMP in .40S&W
SA's EMP in .40 is about as compact as you can get and because it's an all metal gun the snappy recoil of the 40 will be controlled as well as one would expect.
I don't have one. It's on my list to get. It's a $1200 gun. It looks like a 1911 and is except for the EMP it's not just a short barreled 1911. The parts have been resized and optimized for performance and reliability while maintaining the 1911 design.
Check it out.

I have a friend that we shot his S&W Sigma .40 and it's a great gun, but we have noticed the trigger has a hard pull (like 10lbs). The gun is a good value if you like the trigger... Academy has them for $319 + a $50 mail in rebate from S&W = $269.
sigmas aren't exactly compact, but yes a great bargain if you can stand the trigger.
Oh and welcome to the forums new guy. Lots of interesting stuff to read on here.
If you haven't already bought your carry gun you might try a walther PPS(which I carry, very light/compact and a great trigger) or a Taurus 740, I don't know much about them but they are very compact and slim.
