Care to share a little about your slimmest pistol?

(1) What is it (Kimber 1911, Glock 17 etc.)
(2) How wide is the slide
(3) How wide is it at its widest point (including grips and protruding parts)

Actual measurements (rather than a cut & paste of internet data) would be nice.

Thanks
 
I'll check the slimmest later but my carry gun is:

(1) BHP Practical, .40 S&W, Esmerelda 1/2 checkered grips
(2) .8465" at front, .9645" at widest point
(3) 1.3720" at the widest part of the grips, forgot to measure over the slide release.


Now I've found my slimmest:
FN 1906
.691" across the slide
.964" across the widest point

Glock 19. I don't have a ruler handy, but the measurements from the website were accurate when I checked. Slide width is 1.18 inches. The Kahr K9 had a 0.9 inch slide.

Sometimes M&M's taste like burnt hair, but I can't find anywhere on my glock's slides that measure even an inch (wide or tall short of an inch).
 
Kel-tec .380 is no doubt my slimmest.

After that is probably either the 1911 or H&K p7.

All that really matters to me personally, is the width of the slide, so i can carry a BHP just as well as a 1911.
<sigh> I wish glocks were thinner...
