I suspect the master source is Max Popenker and his 116 mm. Good luck updating that though

I think , other than some very obscure one, the smallest .25 acp in factory production was the Bernadelli VP , my example is .22 Long, and not that reliable feeder


My favorite of the ultra minis .25acp is the Astra Firecat, mine is very reliable and not much bigger than the Bernadelli AND it has a grip safety ! Its considerably smaller than a Colt 1903.

The Bauer maybe? Man, those things are TINY.

The Mauser 1910 is not one of the smaller .25s. That said, I bet it’s more pleasant to shoot than many. It’s notably smaller in the hand than its .32 cousin, which itself is in Colt 1903 form factor territory.

The Bauer is a clone of the Browning Baby, which is very small. Though I believe word on the street is the Bernardelli and maybe the Walther TPH(?) are a hair smaller. The browning is right on the edge of impractical, so I’m not sure what the others get you in the real world.

The Lightweight Model Browning Baby is truly near impractical size, nevertheless fairly reliable , I carried one in an ankle holster off and on from late 70s to 2000 . In the earlier times before body scanning equiptment it went thru airports more than once and allways to Mexico and South. I was never bothered, I guess it's all attitude mostly

The lightweight baby Browning is unseen in the center ankle holster there with the pearl Grips and chrome aluminium frame they all came with

IIRC the Walther Model 9 is the smallest production 25acp out there.



The overall length is 9.9cm (3.9"), height only 7cm (2.75") and width only 1.7 cm (.7"). But it was still a 6 + 1 format with a 2" barrel.

The 1910 is not small for a 25. It has a 3" barrel and actual sights.

My Bauer doesn't function properly, but it's in a different size category than my 1910.

I wouldn't count on a 25acp for SD, but the 1910 would not be bad as a pocket plinker.

Here a tiny 6.35mm (25acp) Haenel-Schmiesser made in 1921.

Not positive but I thought that the Bernardelli Vest Pocket Model was the smallest .25 ever made. I came across this LNIB Lightweight Baby Browning about 10 years ago and it was priced so unbelievably low that I just couldn't pass it up!

I forgot about the Walther Model 9, it is very small .
