Interestingly, i saw an old AMT .25acp in the used case at the LGS a few weeks ago and it was cheap...I'm actually thinking of getting something like that so I can wear in short pockets in the summer even if I am outside with no shirt on it's still concealed.

Don't buy that. .25 sucks and that gun may well not run very well
Especially when you can get a modern 380 that's lighter and the same size.

I've got an LCP. It works. And fits the bill for when I can't carry at least a sub compact.
No bias towards it, I'd consider the Kahr or S&W was well.

If I'm not packing the Commander, I'm packing this.

Anything smaller or lighter is too small or light for me. YMMV.

Keltec P3AT for when I can't carry anything else. So long as I keep it lubed, it'll run 100% with my carry ammo, Winchester FMJ flat-nose.

I've been carrying full size framed pistols for as long as I've been carrying anything (about 15 years)
My father in law picked up a Kahr 380 about a month ago for carrying and at first I hated it....thought it was too small, a crappy caliber, and more of a toy than a weapon. The more I play with it the more I find myself wanting something tiny, that can fit in a pocket.

Anyone have one of these teeny weeny pistols for EDC?
Any feelings of inadequacy?

Why not the subcompact xd45 instead? That way, you can share mags.

Right now, if I can't rock my BHP or 1911, I'm usually carrying a Makarov. I'm waiting till I can get my hands on a R51 before I go out an buy one right out.

I got a CW45 for under $300 that I use.
The next time there is a consignment Beretta Nano at the LGS, I'm going to try one.

I currently carry a S&W M&P9c. Big enough to fight with, small enough to easily conceal.

I have thought about a S&W BG380 for occasions where the M&P doesn't cut it, such as needing to wear a suit or tux.

Posted: 4/19/2014 4:48:18 PM EDT

Beretta Nano. The Shield has parts that are die cast like a jennings.

Shield and P938 here. More I use the P938 the more I want to sell the Shield for a G17.

Edit
I voted for P938

I'll go as low as a Kel-tec P 32 if I need something to stick under somebody's jaw and explode.

My everyday carry gun is a Diamondback DB9. I got it and 4 mags, used, for less than what new ones usually cost at a gun show several months ago. Once I'd had the chance to put a couple hundred rounds of FMJ and JHP through it, it replaced the P32 I was carrying. I'd been looking to replace the P32 for awhile, as I don't really care to carry anything smaller than 9mm. The P32 was eventually traded for a couple hundred rounds of 300 BLK. Since the initial break-in period, the only times I've had issues with the DB9 was when I was shooting some TulAmmo 115gr I'd picked up post-Newtown, when ammo was scarce and I bought what I could find.

KelTec P32. Should be included in the poll.

Pocket carry a Bodyguard .380 for when I'm not carrying a gun.

My standard is a Shield 9mm with one extra mag, if the situation warrants I move up to a G19 with extra mag.

I owned and carried the LCP; I liked it. I upgraded to the Kahr P380, which seems to me a higher quality firearm. I only carry it, however, when my concealment options limit me to "micro" sized pistols. I've owned several kel-tecs and even carried them, but quality wise they do not seem to compare to Kahrs or even the Rugers

I think the Kahrs got the single action trigger right. It 's smooth as a nun's ass.

I'm seriously considering getting a Kahr CW380 and putting a clipdraw on it. Already have a Shield 9mm and P3AT. Sometimes I want something a little smaller than the Shield in a Mtac holster, and while my P3AT has been reliable thus far, I've had 3 other Kel-Tecs break so I don't entirely trust it.

MIM is not the same as die cast. Comparing a Shield to a Jennings, that's just dumb.

My P3AT has been 100% reliable. I carry it when I can't carry my G26.

Even though I can't CCW in MD

Actually like this option a lot, but want the smallest possible profile...in a holster the composite frame revolvers are nice, but I'm kinda thinking about a true 'pocket pistol'

Have it, love it, still large.

For FT, EDC, I love NAA & their indestructible awesome warranty lineup.

You are undergunned if you are unarmed. If you are always armed, have situational awareness and are prepared to make war if cornered, a 5 shot 22 is a great asset.

I tried carrying a Makarov. To heavy. The Mak with 8rnds is 1lb12oz where a P30 w/15rnds is exactly 2lbs.

G19 or P30 is as small a gun as I'll carry.
