This is my pocket pistol. It's a P-64 chambered in 9mm Makarov.

What do you carry? Show me your gun porn.

My sidearm of choice ...

H&K P30.

I’ve owned a couple Makarov’s. Mine was of East German manufacture. Very reliable, never jammed, and has a little more pop than a .380, though less than a 9mm.

Nice article but not completely accurate with regard to power. You can get mouse guns today that hold 8 rounds of 9mm. You don’t have to settle for .32 in a mouse gun today. Amazing.

Otherwise, good article.

I have a CZ82. Love it.

I just got one of these for my Wife:


Springfield XDs.

I personally carry the XDM 4.5" .45 bitone, and the Kahr CW45.

[ozzymandus]

I have one of those. Had to change out the springs to make the trigger pull manageable.

Even if you manage to align the sights perfectly and keep your entire focus on that little bump near the muzzle, you can still miss.

Fortunately, the vast majority of self defense situations are going to be within 10 feet or so. At that range, you don't aim, you point.

My favorite carry pistol is my Ruger LC-9 kept in an IWB holster that has a flip-open button strap. It's very comfotable and secure.
I love this pistol. I've carried a S&W .38 Special J-frame revolver for a while but I always go back to the LC-9. It rocks and is very accurate.

I carry(when I carry) a 1990s Colt Mustang 6 shot mag .380 SA...carried in condition 2...I am pretty good at cocking the hammer as I push it forward....very accurate for its size...

my son has a Ruger LCP 6 shot mag also .380 DAO...around a third the weight....much less accurate but for the distance these things are made for...accurate enough...

Great article. Thanks.

I carry a Glock 27. Heat most of the year make carry a challenge, but best I’ve found for me is IWB.

Keltec PF-9
value priced, works just fine, fits in my pocket, has a rail in case you want/can afford a laser or a light. No, you DO NOT have to settle for a pocket pistol smaller than 9MM.

How about pocket revolvers? I have a Charter Arms Bulldog Pug; five shots of 44 special.

[Kenton]

I prefer to carry my Ruger LCP, tricked out with a Crimson Trace laser and a belt slide, which does away with the need to carry a holster and makes it real easy to carry concealed.

The only living thing I've ever used it on was a snapping turtle who tried to steal my bait when I was fishing.

4 Golden Sabre hollow points into the head and neck, and it was still kicking. They're pretty hard to kill, probably more so than your average feral urban yute...

[ArrogantBustard]

This is not my pistol.

Mine is one of the many others like it.

[papineau]

Most will think it's paractically useless, but I just love the look and feel of my classic 40s Saturday night special

Harrington & Richardson 622

[Lazamataz]

This is my pocket pistol.

I have big pockets.
