Beretta Pico

[remdds]

I'm looking for a pocket pistol. I see online Beretta has a .380 out now, called the Pico. Anyone have one? How's it handle? How do you carry it? Know where I can order one online? etc.

I don't think it will be available to the public until 2014

I am waiting for reviews from non-paid spokespersons before deciding.

I'm eager to learn more about this one, too. Waiting for public availability and general reviews, too.

I have a Nano and love it, so I'm optimistic. Never a problem with anything made by Beretta, despite how often gun shop employees bash the company, probably for not being American or being hard to work with in a retail environment, rather than for the products themselves.

I would not mind an extra 4/10 of an inch on the grip and a seventh round in the magazine. That stock plastic pinkie extension seems longer than that, yet does not add any extra rounds. My opinion is that Beretta made the 9mm Nano too small to grip with the 6 round in and too tall to conceal with the 8 round magazine. Both the Pico and the Nano could benefit greatly from a 7 round magazine.
