Saw one for the first time at the NRA show. Looks just like a mini Ultra CDP - very cute.. And very spendy - $900+.. http://www.kimberamerica.com/1911/micro-carry

Nice looking gun but like you said, spendy. I'd pick a sig over that any day, be hard to tell the two apart.

On the website, MSRP is $651 for the base model, $1121 for the CDP without laser grips and $1406 with the laser grips. The base model does not have an ambidextrous safety. While Kimber may be able so sell some base models in the same market that Sig saturated years ago with the P238, I doubt they will sell many of the high end models at those prices!

And Colt is making Mustangs again.  I'd still like to see Colt revise the Gov't .380 - make it just enough bigger to take the 9x19, and make the barrel 3.5-4" long for better reliability. That would be sweeter

If my P938 was any longer, it would no longer meet my criteria for a pocket gun. I wouldn't mind it if the trigger was a little better, though.

If the P938 really is pocket sized I will have to give them a closer look. So far my search for a 'drop it in the pocket and forget that it is there" 9mm has come up empty.

I do not think that it will meet your criteria. I know it is there. It is lighter than the no dash 640 I carried for a number of years. I am working down from that and you are working up from a KelTec that weighs half.
