Default Let's see your tiny/small/pocket Centerfire pistols

I hope we all can contribute as many pics to this thread about pocket/small arms as we did to large bore compacts!!
Here are two little arms that are fun!
My KT 32 HC and I.O. Hellcat .380 Nickel

The Skyy/Sccy from hell and the KT PF-9 OD

Boris,
I too think that the P32 is a great arm to have, tiny, and bare minimum but better than nothing and more reliable than a rimfire

My brother has a P3AT and it seems to kill raccons and other small critters in the barns just as good as the P32. So as I see it I have one more round with just about the same performance as 380. That and it is lighter than my JA22 that is very reliable with minmag solids and is a good bit smaller than the Walther P22.

I love my P32 and when you stoke it with CIP spec ammo like Fiocchi and S&B, it really does bring the power level up a notch or two. CIP has a spec of 5,000psi more for 7.65Br and it is very noticeable when I compare it to SAAMI 32ACP. Infact I do not even feed it SAAMI spec ammo. It is pretty weak stuff........

The two I usually always have on me, or with me. While the Bulldog isn't really that tiny/small, it is small enough!

What? No one has posted the Browning Baby or the Colt equivalent. I believe they are John Browning designs (??). There was a clone on the market as the PSP-25. Here's mine except I changed to the Browning grips.

Sorry for the late reply, Hi Beth in Naugy! I'm up near T-town...

Although not really a pocket pistol it is a nice small 7-shot .45ACP, I enjoy it.
The Bersa .45 Thunder Ultra Compact Pro Nickel is well made, fit and finished. The basic design is similar to the Walther P-88.

Vintage AMT .380 Backup.. I will never carry this gun since you can release the safety by just pressing the trigger (scary).

I do shoot a few rounds through it now and then. I'll put one round in the chamber for a new shooter since the darn thing kicks like a mule and I don't want anyone shooting themselves in the face with the second round.

Just looking at that photo makes my hand ache....

That sharp corner on the rear of the frame, at the top of the grip, used to chew a hole into the web of my hand.

I love moon clips.... is this over-the-counter, or is it customized?
