My prefrence for CCW, as mentioned above,....
Is the Colt CCO.....but it does not fit into a pocket well.
I have tried many designs over the years to find the perfect pocket piece...from High Standard Derringers, Beretta 32a's, AMT Back Ups, various .38 snubbies, etc.
One of the best is and always will be the Jayframe .38...take your pick of models and features...I like the Bodyguard, but the 442/642 is great too. The balance of a small revolver in a good holster, is excellant...it is a great American concealed classic!
My lady friend recently picked up a Kahr PM9 and I must say that is one sweet little gun!! And if I was in the market for another pocket piece(one day I will be), I'd get that one. Expecially in the military...at least there will be Nine ammo available, if only ball(yuck). I'd load it with Plus P JHP's myself. It's easier to shoot fast and accurate that the Jay(on average), less recoil, more power, more ammo, faster reload, etc.
I suppose the dinky .380 has it's place too, though under powered, it beat throwing rocks. I fired the Keltec and did not much care for it...but for deep concealment/extreme close range emergency....
Personally I'd love to find a Colt Pocketlite Mustang...that would be my .380 flavor of the month.
The Baby Glocks are good guns, but rather chunky for the average pocket.
