I carry a Polish p64. Excellent gun. It is pretty much a ppk except it is a 9-18 makarov instead of a 32. It is a blow back design so it feeds well and very accurate. If you can find one, or even a cz they are a great little guns. They usually run under $300.00. And you get a great gun for the price. They are a surplus gun but most look as if they have never been shot.
I have a Ruger lcp 9mm. Great gun except the trigger. I replaced it with the Polish. The Polish is all metal with a great sa trigger, but a crap da trigger. I fixed the da with a new spring for $4.00. The cz 50 is a great gun and small. The Cz82 is awesome, just a tad big to carry in my opinion. Still love it though. I think I might pick up a baby eagle 40 ( basically the old Jericho). That is if I can talk the owner out of it.

My favorite gun to carry is the Kahr CW9. I have carried it for right at 5 years now. It is light, thin, but I would not really call it a "pocket gun." My Sunday carry gun is the Ruger LCP which does well in a pocket holster.
In February I renewed my CHL with the Kahr. Two other guys were at the line to qualify for their renewal. They were both shooting full sized 1911s that I'm pretty sure they don't carry. They both shot a perfect 250 points. I pulled out my sub compact Kahr out of my pancake holster and had two outside of the 8 ring at the 15 yard line scoring 248. 175 points is required to pass. I think if I did it again I could score perfect with it. I was shooting too fast.
