Which .380 pocket pistol under $600 is best and why?

I don't see the benefit of pocket carrying a larger gun over belt carry of the same weapon. I wouldn't buy different clothes to accommodate putting a weapon in my pocket that should be on my belt. Also, I have larger hands. A g26 or a P11 fits in my pockets as it is and I could probably conceal it there but drawing the weapon out of my pocket opening with my hand on the grip is a no go. Its all about the role your weapon is filling. For the occasional times I pocket carry I'm not going to purchase a whole different style of pants to accommodate carrying a bulkier weapon in my pocket when the LCP fits just fine in my clothes now. If a LC9 or similar was my only carry then it might be worth it.

I like my P238, its surprisingly accurate, and you can trick them out. It is heavier than the plastic ones, but I don't notice it while packing.

Bersa make the CC (conceal carry) smaller than the thunder but still bigger than a P3AT

It's a lot bigger than the P3AT and even a lot bigger than the CM9/PM9.

Really happy with my P238. Chose it over the LCP and LC9 and the Kel-Tec famlily.
