You will hear some suggest the Kel Tec P32 (.32ACP caliber). It is very small and is what I carry when nothing else will go in the pants. But it is still classified as a "mouse gun".

Kel Tec P32 (.32ACP caliber).

Kel-Tec now makes a .380 in exactly the same size -- 10 ozs fully loaded, and 3/4 of an in. thick. It holds one less round that the P32 (6+1)

I have a P32 and have had two problems with mine after about 70-80 rounds thru it.

In the first instance, the trigger pull grew progressively longer as I approached 50 rounds. It then could not be pulled back far enough to fire.

After that was fixed, I put another 20 rounds thru it and it jammed. The reason was that the plastic recoil guide rod has worn down from friction and allowed the recoil spring to slip into the guide hole along with the guide rod.

Now I don't target shoot it anymore but still have it. Just make sure you keep a new guide rod handy to use for serious shooting.
