Chiefs Special, and a Smith 908, it's a 9mm single stack, two tone, nice little concealment pistol.  I'm wanting to get a S&W Model 642, 38+P Airweight with a shrouded hammer, quite a bit lighter than the 9mm, the shrouded hammer keeps it from snagging in a pocket.

Current line up - Glock 19, 26, or 30

In the past I carried a KelTec P11 and a S&W 642.  The P11 will never be carried again since it became unreliable.  The 642 was traded, but I'm looking for another as it was a nice carry gun.

Doc, What happened on the P11? Mine never had a FTF but I traded it for $$ to get the G30.

I kept getting all kinds of malfunctions.  In 100rds I would get no less than 5 problems; e.g. stove pipe, smileys, etc.   I kept it cleaned and lubed properly.  I have a buddy that had one for a year before me and never had a problem with it.  I spoke with him last week and he said it is still running strong for him.  Just like anything else, there will be some good ones and some bad ones.

I don't remember what all I did.  I just remember buying a G26 to fix the problem.

Taurus Mod. 85CH (never had a problem with it). Smith Mod. 36 Chief's Special after that. NAA Guardian .32 ACP up until a little while ago. Beretta 21A .22 LR or Glock 19 right now. Depends on what I'm wearing.

It definately fixed.  I have many thousands of rounds through it with not a single malfunction.  Plus it's far more accurate than you would expect a sub-compact to be.

I'll probably be carrying the G19, since that's what I'm most familiar with and I won't need to worry about concealing it under clothes.

My husband doesn't know it yet, but he's buying me a new purse for my birthday.
