Hello all, I just joined this community and was hoping to get some advice on pocket pistols from those with much more knowledge than me
I'm looking to go a bit against normal convention here. What I'd like is to get a heavy pocket pistol. Recently I bought a Bersa thunder 380cc, that is mild to shoot and fits some of my pockets easily. I love it. Reliable and easy to shoot 200 rounds in a range session. Still depending on the pants, it is sometimes too big for the pocket carry. There are many times where it is too big, and pocket carry is my only option. I have a naa mini that serves me well, but realistically I'd like a bigger round in the pocket.
So why heavy, well I like to practice, and light stuff makes me stop practicing. Had a Keltec p380, Ruger lcr, Keltec pf9. Did not like any of them for some reason or other. Too light is often the issue. Also I really want a common caliber, 380 is what I'm really looking at. I reload and have everything for 380 or 9mm. Trying to avoid 32acp if I can.
NAA makes the guardian in 380, but what other options are out there. I have found that I really do not mind a heavy amount of weight in my pocket. I tried carrying 30 oz of shot in my pocket for a day, and did not mind it at all.
Thanks for your advice all.
God bless,
Ryo
