Model 60 is small enough for me. Some of the above Mouse Guns would make me fear shootin a finger tip off.
 
Beretta 950 Jetfire. Bought it in 1980 I think.It's sitting in the same drawer it's been in since about 1982. FTL Auto-nine was pretty small, but a joke of a gun.
Smallest gun of any real caliber is my Astra A75 9mm.
 
Mine is the NAA Wasp in .22 magnum. I loved everything about the gun short of the delicate skeletal hammer. It's the smaller gun that I own

I picked up a Black Widow with both .22 and .22 mag cylinders. Better sights, slightly longer barrel. I took off the chunky grip and opted for a set of laminated egg shape scales. It's actually the smallest gun I will carry.

Its funny, but with the improved sights I can actually shoot the BW as well as a "full size" .22 snubnose revolver. Its been 100% reliable, and i can count on one hand how many times I have gone a day without it in my pocket.

Not the best tool for going into battle, but there have been a couple of times I was glad to remember I had it with me.
 
I guess it'd have to be this one:

It's a Cobra CM-22, and contrary to most reports, it actually functions quite well. I gave it an "action job", by polishing the hammer and trigger, and clipping a coil off the hammer spring. Now, you can pull the trigger with one finger instead of two. My wife and I enjoy shooting it with Colibris in the back yard. It's by no means accurate, but a lot of fun.

I had one of those hi standard 22mag O/U derringers with the DA trigger. It was very loud, and I think I would have had difficulty hitting a barn with it unless I was inside of said barn. A friend had to have it, so I happily sold it to him for what I paid.
 
The smallest would be my Shield which I bought as a carry gun but I quickly found that I don't like guns that small.
 
Ruger LCP was the smallest defensive handgun I've had. Got rid of it when I decided to consolidate in 9mm. Then picked up a Sig P338.
I inherited a tiny .22 that's not even 3" long, but I've never done anything with it. Haven't even loaded it.
 
Mine's a Beretta 950 Jetfire in 25acp.

Not a carry piece, but it's a real hoot at the range.
 
I have a Davis Derringer but I don’t consider it the smallest. Actually, I don’t consider it at all. It sits in the safe.

I consider the Kel-Tec P3AT that I used to own the smallest handgun I have owned. It was so light and small I would almost forget it was in my pocket. It hurt like heck to shoot. It pinched my trigger finger at the pull of the trigger and whacked my trigger finger during recoil. I got rid of it.
 
Keltec p32, love shooting that thing because it's a challenge and is accurate enough to reward you with hits when your on.
Tried carrying it around the house empty to see what it would feel like in my pocket. Forgot about it and ran it thru the wash.
Might be different in holster, but if I'm gonna ware a holster around house, I'll carry a bigger gun.
 
Smallest handgun I've ever owned ... bought it for a BUG, but never quite warmed to it (S&W Model 60, later a 442 stayed in that role until the wondergun that is the SIG P-365 came along). Plus, after seeing someone hit with six rounds of .32 (surviving and staying in the fight), it was long ago relegated to the nether regions of the safe.
