So where do they get the right to confiscate your firearm if you defend yourself with it?
Self-defense is a lawful activity, let us not forget.
Kind regards, charlesb

Not much bigger than the LCP. In my experience, the LC9 will fit in a pocket holster in front pocket of my jeans/shorts and won't print. Fits better than J-frame with exposed hammer.

Isn't the LC9 a bit large for the pocket? I was looking at one this morning, I thought it looked a little big for pocket carry.

Colt Mustang pocket-lite stainless. The more I shoot and carry this the more I like it. Perfect summer time carry piece.

My go to for pocket carry is my S&W M&P340 .357. With boot grips and it being so light you hardly notice you're carrying. Recoil is downright brutal with full house .357, but at 13 oz unloaded it's to be expected and I do practice with the hot stuff occasionally to make sure I can control it and make decent follow up shots.

I don't carry very often but when I do the LC9 is not a problem.

I've been looking at them hard. I love revolvers. I'm torn between the J Frame and the Colt Mustang pocket lite.

I am a Colt and 1911 fan so I was looking at the Mustangs, but I didn't like the sights. They are small and hard to see I prefer the Sig P238 and P938 sights. I do like the J frames. I originally had a 642 Pro and now the M&P 340. My only gripe with them is that the triggers are extremely heavy (14 lbs and 13 lbs on my two from the factory). They are surprisingly accurate with some practice and great to carry.

you know my vote for auto pistol. Revolvers are interesting, the ultra light weight hammerless are my next addition I think. Unless you buy one and I don't like it of course.

KelTec P3AT which I've had for five years. It goes bang every time, and it's easy to forget even with light clothing. I've got it in my right front pocket in a soft pocket holster of course.
It's accurate enough and not meant to be a range gun, so by enough we are talking just a few feet.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.
