Years ago, as an LEO, I carried a little DAO Intratec .25 inside my vest, under the elastic straps. Since our uniform shirts zipped up under a row of faux buttons, access was tricky, but possible.
The gun was no marvel of engineering, but worked; I always thought of it as a 'Nose Gun', as an old-timer had put it-"Shove it up their nose and keep pulling the trigger."
I would be interested in seeing if a modern, perhaps polymer, .25 could be made proportionally smaller than the current micro-pistol .380's of today; of course, if they could, I'd likely need my bi-focals to find it, much less shoot it.
