Not sure abput your sex/size/experience etc, so the only recommendation I can ethically provide is to suggest you contact a reputable certified (NRA/ etc) CC trainer.

They can provide all sorts of opportunities and tailor both training and weapons selection to your personal characteristics.

All too often, the internet is chock full of advice on "which is best" etc, however, most pros will not offer such advice w/o being face-to-face.

A placv top start is NRAhq.org, then look for instructors in your area. For a modest fee, one will provide you uniformly accepted guidance & traiing in pistol and self protection in/out the home, and will likley be able to provide additional tailored guidance that expands on the standard NRA curricula.

CC is a mindset, not just the carrying of a firearm.

From there, you can seek out upper tier training and shooting skills from places like gunsite, frontsite, Lethal force Inst and many other well known schools of arms.

Best;
