Also IIRC it was a Browning design. "Browning Short"
You are correct.
Despite what many think of this caliber, it's a reasonable compromise for carry protection; especially under a suit jacket.
I have two Sigs. One is the P226 in 9mm Parabellum, and a P232 in 9mm Kurz (.380).
I have twin Ruger Vaquero .357 Blackhawks for SASS shooting (.38 spl. loads only) and will take one on camping/hunting trips loaded with .357.
Regardless, they are not my choice for carry or bedside.
Thanks
I have a Walther PPK/S .380 that I use just for the jacket thing.
A Kel-tec P-32 (.32 Ca) for summer shorts. I just can't seem to justify a fag bag (pinging Registered ;) ) just to tote anything larger in hot weather.
Whenever it's cool enough to wear more clothes the Titanium SW .357 revolver comes into play. Light as hell but stings when shooting 38s much less 357s but WTF.
