I am looking specifically for a handgun that is better suited for a beginner.

I'm not looking for "buy a Glock and learn how to shoot it" advice. I have a Glock that I shoot well, but never felt it was an easy gun to start a beginner out on. Some discussion in the closed 320 vs thread by Grant really stood out to me, backing up my feeling on it.

...Glock's and new shooters should stay away from each other...
Insight especially from instructors on what they have/would choose to teach teens or a beginner with no gun experience is what I'm looking for.
