You know, for a hideout gun I might prefer a PPK in .380. Most concealable pistol (in a reasonable caliber) that I have, and it’s DA with a hammer block so you don’t have to worry so much about a whoops or leaving it hammer down on an empty chamber.

Personally, I loved that little .45 Star PD I used to have. Short barrel, aluminum frame, and the great knockdown power I prefer was always on call.

Thanks for the info! Next week, I’m applying for a lifetime permit and then going *shopping*. I was leaning towards a S&W .38 but will definitely take a look at the PPK! Any problems with it jamming? Also, (if you don’t mind) pros and cons for either?

May i respectfully suggest, as an alternative, Sig Sauer P232? Both are good, but give the Sig a try as well.
