Baretta PICO
Beretta Pico, so thin, so light, you forget it's there, it's my summer go to pistol!
Mine has the laser, good shooter, trigger very long!

That would be too big and too heavy for me to pocket carry.
Do you wear cargo pants?
Do you use a pocket carry holster ie sticky holster?

I thought those were are all stainless steel I didn't realize they were aluminum with a stainless finish. It's a nice looking piece

Thank you. The caliber debate has been redundant for years. The thread is about pocket guns and people are talking about full sized 45s. Nobody is pocket carrying that.

The powder in a .45 burns too long to be effectively used with a shorter, "pocket" barrel. Too much energy would be lost. You'd wind up with a fat 9mm.

The .45 ACP is a low-pressure cartridge that uses modest charges of fast burning powder. As such, it is not as affected by barrel length as other calibers. Even when the barrel is as short as 3 inches, the .45 ACP usually produces a full powder burn.

Kahr PM9 loaded with 124 grain Hydra-Shok in a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster. I've contemplated changing the load to CorBon 115 grain +P (for years now), but I would want to run at least 100 rounds through to make sure it fed reliably and I don't want to run that many rounds of high pressure ammo through the gun (though I think the PM9 is rated for +P).
I've had my eyes on the S&W 340PD for years now, as I think it would draw from a pocket easier (sometimes the stubby back of the slide gets caught on the front of my pocket with the Kahr). And with the S&W I could put a Crimson LaserGrip on it. But I've been carrying the PM9 for more than ten years now, and I'll probably be carrying it ten years from now (when it's not in an ankle holster). Most of the time it's my BUG, but on hot summer days when wearing shorts, I sometimes just carry it.

I agree. Not sure how some get those 9’s in their pocket

My little Ruger fits better in my shorts pocket with the standard mag but I can still conceal it with the extended mag inserted.
