This one has been around awhile. I also like the 442. Measurably lighter.

...Rule # 1.5 should be have a gun that shoots EVERY time you pull the trigger. That would eliminate almost every semi-auto, leaving only revolvers. Huh? What kind of semi- autos are you shooting? I've never had a FtF unless it was ammo related.

I've never had a FtF unless it was ammo related. My point, exactly! Semi-autos can be fussy about ammo. Revolvers go bang every time.

My true pocket gun would have to be my Diamondback 380. I carry my DB 9mm whenever I have pants on. at 11 oz you can forget it's there.

Guess you guys haven't been around long enough to learn about fussy ammo and stovepipes, failures to feed, etc. Failure of a primer is only one small risk.

360pd, it's not much more obtrusive in my pocket than my cell phone. 5 rounds of .357 ammo and less than 14 oz loaded. I've never wished that I'd left it at home.

I will second that motion. I also favor the airweight body guard.

I'm old school. If I ever feel the need to drop a pistol into my pocket, it'll be my Walther PP. Heavy? Sure. Obsolete? Maybe. Much better newer designs? Indeed. Do I like it nonetheless? Yep.

stomatador, Here's to Guy Clark. We all miss Townes.
Why are so many people willing to settle for a .38, 9mm or even a .380 when you can have a .357 in a tiny package?
