Pocket Pistols

What are the best pocket pistols on the market and why?

The Seecamp 380 looks to be a very quality gun but they seem to be hard to find. Welcome to the L.W. Seecamp Company Home Page

Does anyone have any personal favorites/experience with pocket guns?

The kel tec p38t is supposedly tiny and good. Also Khars 380.

Seecamp are the best but only custom made you wait a long time or have to buy somebody elses. I have a 9mm Kel-tec build quality is so so. Has a terrible kick for a 9mm, the trigger has a very hard snap-back stunning your trigger finger and the grip perforation has such sharp edges that they hurt after just a short while of shooting. Certainly not a target range gun. But it has a belt clip and can easily be worn inside the pants without a holster. Also checkout Ruger's new .38 after initally recall issues (fired when dropped) the newer batch is supposed to be great.

Cant you only use certain ammo in seecamps? I dont see why everyone likes them so much, theres not much to a pocket pistol these days and thats an older design.

The Ruger LCP with Crimson Trace laser sights and Hornady Critical Defense rounds is a pretty nice setup for a mouse gun. I don't really care for shooting it much but it's very easy to conceal when a 1911 is just too big. My wife loves her LCP and is very proficient with it. The long trigger pull drives me crazy but doesn't bother her at all.

I have owned, and sold all of the popular models on the market and can tell you that the diamondback DB380 is the best pocket gun on the market for less than $500.
I probably sell 3-5/wk consistently. Great guns!

My Kel-tec 380 is the same way,it is small but does hurt your triger finger after a while.
