First off let me start by saying i don't really like small guns. i've got pretty good sized hands and prefer larger pistols. However, lately i've found myself going out once in a while unarmed due to wardrobe restrictions or other reasons. I carry a HK P2000 which isn't huge but it's not tiny either. So I've decided to start looking for a handgun I could just put in a pocket holster and throw in a jacket pocket or pants pocket. I've got a few guns I plan on buying before this one but I'm starting to do the research now. My first instinct was the the Kahr PM9 but then I looked at their website and saw that MSRP for their cheapest model was $771. I understand that I would be able to get one cheaper than MSRP but that is still more than I want to spend. This would not be a gun I shoot a lot, it would simply be a small gun that I carry when nothing else is an option. I'm looking for cheap yet still goes bang when I pull the trigger. About what would a used PM9 cost? The Kel Tec P11 seems to be a good option. As far as I can tell it's cheap and reliable. For an autoloader I'd like to stick with 9mm or bigger and for revolver .38 special. I'm not against buying something used. So what do you say, for around $400 or less what is a good pocket pistol and why? I've done some searching on here and found some good info but still looking for more advice.
