Kahr, vs. taurus, vs ruger or.....pistol choosing dilemma?

i am looking for a dependable 9mm or 45acp that fits well in my hand and that is < $700. thanks for all that have given me their honest feedback about taurus and kahr pistols. i like the feel of the walther, ruger, kahr and taurus pistols but am leery about the dependability of those vs. the glock. i don't have big hands and the glock feels blocky and clumsy, so what's a guy to do when possibly the most dependable gun doesn't fit as well as others, or am i wrong about the dependability of those, especially the kahr or ruger sr9/sr9c, etc......?
