I certainly don't know what the next big things are going to be, however I have hopes. I hope the industry might introduce and develop smaller cartridges perhaps using a different propellent (like an extruded tube of Sintox or some other leadless primer-type material) capable of being safely fired from smaller firearms with fortified chambers/barrels.
It will likely never happen, but I would love something the size of a LCP II with a 13-15 round double stack magazine making use of a rimless .32acp-sized cartridge that pushes a 65gr-ish fluted bullet (such as the Extreme Defender) to something nuts, like say 1600+ fps. Yeah, I'd buy one. The only downside would be the challenges to reload for it.
Heck, I'd even go for a rimless .25acp sized cartridge with a 40gr copper defender-type bullets at 1700 fps so long as it's something the side of an LCP with a 17 or so capacity.
One can dream.
