Joe, my buddy has had a keltec 380 for several years now and loves it. He had it reworked over by keltec and it has never had an issue. Personally, I would go the bodyguard or Ruger route for a pocket 380.

Is a 380 worth having in your pocket? Well, it's better than a thumb up your hoohah when you need it.

My Wife picked the Sig P238 when we went shopping for her pistol. I wanted her to have something she would carry, rather than something she would make excuses not to... It has worked out great, then the Sig P938 came along. With the P938 being about identical in size save for a slightly longer slide/barrel (we are talking 3/4 of an inch if that...) it makes for a great compact and pocket 9mm She still carries the P238, but I use the P938 as a BUG in either front pocket of everything from jeans to cargo shorts.

Sorry for the crappy pics, but here is the size differences between the P238 (.380) and the P938 (9mm):

I have never fired a G and have no interest in having a loaded gun of any kind in my pocket, especially one with no safety. I have a 9 and a 45 SA XDs but I am unwilling to carry them. Should I be jumped by some scumbag I do not want a just pull the trigger situation in my pocket or in my holster. I am way to ignorant to be posting anything in this thread other than please explain this to me. Dennis

Dennis, these are 1911 format and I carry the P938 regularly in the pocket in a holster of course (Panther Concealment Panther Cub) I find it just as safe as on the hip IWB/OWB carry, just am always conscious of where the muzzle is pointing when I am seated.

Thanks. I should figure this out by the time I get back to warm weather in Florida on 1/10. I like my SA XDs 9MM. I loved it when it would shoot fully auto, the entire magazine. Nearly crapped my pants the first time but then got into the game and stuck the extended mag into it. The RO was a little po ed but wanted to try it of course. It has a very predictable trigger since SA reworked it. Still I am concerned about a lack of safety and do not feel comfortable carrying with a round in the tube. I still have not even fired the .45 RA XDs. I would be really pissed to be shot with my own gun. I know I must be missing something about the little tangy thingee on the trigger. I seem to be wanting to go bigger and more rounds for carry although my WC plastic Spec-Ops 9 is still at my FFL and may not be the ticket I think it will be. I really love my DW ECO 9MM for carry and it is the right choice for me now as I shoot it more effectively than any other I own.

I also carry the Sig P938, and so does my wife. You can't beat the fire power for the size, as well as the accuracy. My brother shot it for the first time yesterday at the range, and he fell in love. IT is actually a very soft shooter for the size and is well worth the $. You can find them on Palmetto State Armory for $499 sometimes. Like the previous poster stated its not much bigger thatn the 380, and you will be hard pressed to find the P938's combination of small size, 9mm, and shootability. I alos liked the Kahr PM9, but I like SA triggers.
