I'd carry a .17 HMR if that was all I could possibly conceal. Even a tiny gun is better than no gun.
The issue many of us have with that statement is that such a situation simply cannot exist.
What's the smallest gun chambered in .17 HMR? A Taurus snubby? Taurus offers the exact same gun in .38 Spl...
I did forget about 7.62x25. It's a great round for which not many manufacturers chamber their guns. Consequently, most modern carry guns, due to advances in metalurgy, are smaller, lighter, and fire a larger, more powerful round.
A small calliber does not always mean a small gun.
