| Looking for a small pistol, excellent quality that I can stash in my iwb holster without printing. The smaller the better, although I'd like nothing less than a .380 semi-auto. |

Long answer: There are a lot of variables as far as personal tastes and you'll probably get more detailed responses if you provide more details on yourself, your experience with firearms, body type, et cetera. Short answer: I'm *really* liking my new Kahr MK9  . Striker-fired, single-stack, 9mm & smaller in all dimensions than a Walther PPK. Heavier than polymers but, if you don't mind toting it, it makes recoil negligible.Edited to add: FWIW, I'm *learning* (new to carrying) that printing is more a function of your wardrobe and movements than of the gun you carry. |

depends on the weight, an excellant sort heavy CCW is COLT PONY or POCKETLITE, they come in .380 and kinda expensive. the KAHR is another approach. some ppl are partial to the SUB-Glocks. the best thing is goto the gunshop and finger feel guns and "try them on" . I learned all the Wronge ways to carry concealed, i was carring a PPK w/ an IN the waist holester, not comfy at all and it was a big gun and only .380. I switched to a M85 .38spl revolover now, lite weight (only 5 shots though) and its not a threatning lookin evil black gun like the Glocks. lol. |

I would say a glock 26 or 27. The kel tecs are not bad, but I really dislike the triggers. The glocks give you plent of ammo and one of the better double action like, no conventional manual safty triggers. I also like the para LDA's, Sig 239, STI Tiki, and the STI LS9. |
