Default Pocket Pistols

I looked through the forum and could not find this topic. If someone knows of this being asked, direct me to the forum thread. What choices do I have for a pocket pistol? I know of the LCP 380, and the Kel-Tec, is there any others available? I was looking for something from a .380 and up.

Check out the Ruger LCP. A Crimson Trace laser is available that is sweet.

Good luck getting a Kel-tec or LCP right now. Whe have aproximately 30 KT's on order and at least as many LCP's. We could sell every single one that we get in if we could get them. We already have about 10 pre paidorders for each of the guns sitting here waiting on guns to show up.

Take a hard look at North American Arms. They are a very simple and rugged design and are all stainless steel. The 380's are a little harder to get right now but the 32acp's are available from most distrubutors right now. There isn't a hill of beans difference between the 32 and 380 in terms of a "get off me gun" pocket pistol cartridge. Neither one is somethingI would rely upon at any distance past just a couple of feet and at the same time either one will do just fine at arms length as a last resort. If you can find one in 32NAA (380 case necked down to 32 cal) get it. It is specifically designed to ring out maximum velocity (about 1200 fps) and thus maximum damage and shock to the bodyfrom the little 2" barrel and a 65 grain32 caliber bullet and is actually a better stopper than either the 32acp or 380acp.

bigbulls, you are right about the availability! The local gun shop said it would be Feb. before they would probably have any Rugers or Kel-Tecs in. I will look at the gun you mentioned. Thanks
