I just purchased a CZ 2075 RAMI because I liked the size with the ten round magazine. Well, mine was shipped with two 14 round magazines and I can't find any 10 rounders out there. I posted here a few days ago asking if anyone knew where any 10 round mags were, but no response. And, getting on the CZ forum to ask a question is a strange little adventure that I just bypassed.

Anyway, I guess I will have to look for a different carry gun in 9mm and I have been looking and comparing. Is the Glock 26 about the smallest gun out there that has at least a 10+1 round capacity? It seems to be smaller than the XD9 sc, the M&P Compact and real close to the Taurus PT111. Any other suggestions?

Kel-tec P11.
It's shorter, thinner, and lighter than the Glock, and is still 10+1. I have shot one once and it seemed like a decent gun.

I carry either a Glock 26 S&W 442/642 or a Kimber Ultra. I would personally stick with the Glock 26.

Have one....jam-o-matic.

Kahr PM9 and PM40's are smaller.

I really want 10+1 capacity.

Looking for 9mm.

They are all 9mm. The 380 is a 9mm Kurtz. (9mm "short")

Yes, I realize that. It is technically a 9mm with inferior ballistics. So, when I mentioned 9mm, I meant the 9mm that comes to everyone's mind when you mention 9mm and not the .380.:neener:

I would love to have an EMP, it's just a little spendy.

Kel Tec P11. I have one. Best little pocket gun available at any cost IMHO. 13 rounds of firepower (with optional 12 round mags from KT that are flush fit). Mine has never ever jammed in over 11,000 rounds. I never had to send mine back, shoots 3.5" rested groups to POA at 25 yards, the perfect pocket pistol. It has a lifetime warranty from one of the best companies extant for customer service. If it fails, they'll fix or replace it no hassles.

The G26 is porky, heavy, won't do well as a pocket pistol in warm weather. The P11 is about as large as I wanna carry in a front pants pocket, but rides well all day long.

Then there's the Kahrs and the PF9 (9+1 rounds I think) that are single stack and even thinner that the P11's 1" thickness.

The smith and wesson mags can increase capacity of the P11 to 15+1, but extend below the grip a bit. The idea in design was for those carrying a Smith 59xx as a primary that the same mags would fit the back up P11.

Send it back to Kel Tec.
I probably will, but I don't think I will be able to trust it at this point.

a mouse :p

I don't know of a "mouse" size gun in 9mm.




Haha i meant an actual mouse :p
 
Rosen leather works rather well for IWB. Mostly, I pocket my P11 anymore.

Rohrbaugh has the smallest 9

Small, but also a little spendy.

I really wanted mine to be like that. Unfortunately there was 11 FTF in the 100 rounds I put through it.:(
