Most Maks come in 9X18, but the commercial versions come in .380 and I can attest they are fine weapons and the 9X18 is not a bad round for this size pistol. I carried a Bulgie Mak for CCW for many years.
I currently have a Taurus TCP and would carry if I found a holster I felt was safe to carry it in. Most holsters do not cover the trigger guard enough to suit me.
Another .380 I would toss into this pool is the Bersa .380. I have one and it is a nicely balanced shooter. My co-worker carries one for her CCW.
Another pistol in the category I would suggest if the FEG PA-63 which is essentially a Walther clone that comes in 9X18 caliber. Mine has been an excellent shooter and accurate. The one proviso with this piece is get a set of Wolff springs and change the springs out, it makes 100% difference in this pistol.
I am currently carrying a Taurus PT740 in 40s&w. What I like about that is that it has a frame mounted 1911 type safety. Nice gun , but in that small package it kicks like a mule. Eventually looking to replace it with the aforementioned mak.
