What's your goto palm-sized pocket pistol?

[OzymandiasX]

I love a lot of things about my Ruger LCP. It is so tiny that it slips easily into a pocket, even when wearing gym shorts, and it doesn't have protruding sights or corners to get hung up on fabric.

But I think I'm going to get something in 9mm. What are your favorite micro handguns? Is there anything else as small as the LCP?

Sig P365.
Not as small as you're looking for but I never really notice it when I carry it.
Reliable, 10+1 and shoots like it's much bigger than it is.
Modular design so changing grip frames (and pretty much anything else) is easy.
You can also get one with a manual safety if that floats your boat.

Not a ton of options for pocket carry in 9mm but I would say whatever you go with make sure you’re using a pocket holster. The 365 is small but not exactly a pocket Gun.

My pockets are reserved for keys, knives and wallet not handguns.

I agree very much so but the OP started this thread specifically asking about pocket guns.


actually I take that back after thinking about it I have occasionally pocket carried but not for long periods of time. Mainly taking the trash out at night or having to run to the car at night. It’s not something I do anymore because I don’t have a small enough gun anymore.

Not a 9 but pocket carry a S&W Bodyguard 380 in a sticky holster. I wear fishing style shorts and t shirts and it’s perfect for carrying with this attire. Like mentioned the 365 is a great carry gun but too big for pocket carry in my opinion. Love my CZ 2075 but simply cannot carry it in a pants pocket.

My P365 fits just fine in my front pocket of my jeans . It's in a Kydex IWB holster , and the clip goes over the pocket . Rides comfortable and draws easily without the holster moving . My shirt covers it and if the clip shows at times , so what ? I'm not saying it will work for everybody but don't say it won't work at all . I kind of discovered it by accident one night when I shoved it in my pocket to walk outside and see what some strange vehicle was up to .

You might be surprised how well one of the little 5 shot hammerless or bobbed hammer revolvers will fit in the front pocket. .38 or .357mag.
See Camp .32 or .380 or even the Kahr MK9. The first pistol I bought from Jim’s when he opened his new and unaffordable big store.

P938 is a good bit smaller than a 365. Better pocket fit.

I still have my original LCP, got the 'X' stamp on it as the first batch of them was recalled; bought from Larry @ La reloading, got friends to buy 3 or 4 more from him; Its my waffle house gun...

HAHAHAHAHA!!! Liked WaffleHouse gun.

Kel Tec p32.
The P3at and lcp are the same size, but it’s hard to beat the p32’s 8oz loaded weight.

 

[Eagle Eyes]

I got my 1 shot on me at all times, with or without trousers.

 

[krotsman]

The LCP2 is a huge improvement over the original. I did a trigger and spring upgrade on my LCP, which made a world of difference, but the 2 is still a far superior piece.

And yeah, "Waffle House gun"

I have a couple of those little sigs and I really like them. They are built very well and damned accurate for a micro nine.

My 5 shot S&W 340 M&P filled this role for me. 5 shots of .357 magnum is a handful.
