    I carry an Kahr PM9 everywhere.
    Light, thin, reliable and accurate.
    In 9mm, you've got alot more power and bullet selection than 380.
    I wouldn't hesitate to carry an SW 442/642.
    No need for 357 in a pocket gun...too much recoil to handle, anyway.....and yes, I've shot them enough to know.

    I have a cheap Bersa .380, fits in my back pocket. It's so small that it tough on your hands to shoot more than 20-30 rounds at a time but its a great pocket piece.

    I carry a Walther PPS 9MM... not exactly a pocket pistol, but slim enough for IWB carry. I like the 8-round mag b/c it's a little longer and feels better to grip & control. Plus, 9MM is usually easier to come by and a little less expensive than .380 rounds.

    I will eventually get either a S&W Bodyguard .380 or a Sig P238 for a pocket pistol... and a Walther P380 (another gun that fits my hand really well).

    You can never have enough guns :D

    2 in the truck, 2 by the bed, and 6 in the safe... and there's still my "wish list" of guns to keep working on...

    Every true Southern girl should drive a truck and know how to shoot!:quickdraw:

    how true and be a member of www.GeorgiaCarry.org they have been behind the expansion in carry rights the last few years...GA was actually the most restrictive place in the nation on where you could or couldnt carry...now it no longer holds that title ;)

    what part of GA are you in?? im in SE GA

    I'm with ThinkingMan. My BUG/CCW search ended with a Kahr PM9.

    I have had a KelTec before and shot a few other pocket guns, but none as smooth and quick to multi-tap as the Kahr. Then consider the size/weight and overall "carry-ability" and it's gold. It did need a ramp buff, though to be 100pct reliable with Speer 115gr gold dots. Now it is on me about 95pct of the time.

    Carry in a Desantis Nemesis (pocket BUG) or Crossbreed minituck IWB when I use the extended mag and no main sidearm.

    I have my lcp in my pocket all day and love it. Make sure you get something easy to conceal because as others have said, if it's not easy to carry chances are you aren't going to carry it
