I just started carrying the newly released Taurus 709 SLIM 9mm. I ran 200 rounds of various ammo (including Speer Gold Dot 115 gr +P+ as a true defensive round). Absolutely flawless. No malfunctions of any kind. At about 19 oz it seems to be a perfect carry weapon. Even a regular t-shirt hides it on my waist with an OWB silhouette slide holster. Another .380 on the market only makes ammo harder to find and it is hard to compete with a 9mm the same size/weight.
Oh, I've had my eye on that one. Got a shiny new CC permit. My problem is HOW to carry, being a slender woman who hates carrying a purse and would lose it anyway.
