What's a good pocket pistol /k/? Need something that'll disappear under a shirt. Jam-o-matics and overpycrap need not apply

>>63915393
damn beat me to it. but id say get the pug instead. its just so finely made, i think they're neat.

>>63915376 (OP)
be less fat and everything disappears under a shirt, tubby

>>63915422
i bet you dress like a clown

>>63915376 (OP)
It’s generic but LCP. I recently went downtown to a few bars and small clubs and got past several pat downs with it in my back pocket. It really does just disappear in your back pocket.

>>63915376 (OP)
pocket carry sucks, I know because I did it for years. get something you can get your hand on and put it IWB

Lightest centerfire pistol on the market. Disappears under anything. If you can’t conceal this it’s because you’re naked.

>>63915509
shut up james

>>63915500
thats idiot, but sometimes pocket carry is all you can do

>>63915513
James carries the P3AT not the p32

>>63915515
under what circumstance is pocket carry the only option?

>>63915525
when i have to go in to the office and i really dont want to make it obvious im carrying

>>63915376 (OP)
LCR

>>63915539
ankle carry

>>63915525
I work in a factory and we get searched.

>>63915550
thats not comfortable for me and i dont wear baggy pants, its an office.

>>63915553
and they don't check your pockets? also what the fuck kind of factory searches employees?

>>63915376 (OP)
bodyguard 2.0 is the correct answer and the new meta.
>>63915509
>.32 ACP
>works literally half the time
yea, just make sure your life insurance is paid up

>>63915500
I’ve done both. Started with IWB for years. Then got a back pocket carry. Now I only back pocket carry unless I’m going somewhere particular dangerous.

Beretta Tomcat, .32 acp is expensive but I like it

>>63915509
>>63915376 (OP)
Kel-tec is so freaking dumb for not making the 10 extension anymore for this

>>63915376 (OP)
P32
>>63915509
Correct.

>>63915631
that's a 22lr bobcat

>>63915636
apparently they'd crack & shit the ammo all over your pocket

>>63915436
I bet you're fat

>>63915601
>bodyguard 2.0
>pocket carry
Yeah maybe if you wear 2007 era cargo shorts like a turbovirgin.
>>works literally half the time
Oh I see, you’re retarded…

Smith and Wesson Bodyguard 2.0 is amazing. Wife bought it but I put it in my pocket when checking the mail or going for a quick errand.

>>63915845
im not, but if i was, id have more places to hide a gun without worrying about printing

enjoy shooting your dick off or carrying -1

>>63915853
You're been spamming this for weeks and I dunno where you live but a lot of young people wear cargo shorts/pants in US. Touch grass

>>63915376 (OP)
>overpycrap
i don't know what that means but i pocket carry a kahr mk9 everywhere in the summer

>>63915853
What do you wear? 2010s era tight short shorts? My bg 2.0 fits in my church shorts pocket without printing

>>63915864
Good luck getting a heavy ass p32 trigger to pull accidentally.
>>63915873
Idk how to tell you this, but more than one person posts on this board.

If you're poor you can generally pick up a Zastava M70 for 200-something. It's like a Tokarev in .32, sweet little gun for cheap a little bit bulkier than a tomcat but concealable

>>63915889
I wear normal people clothes.

>>63915897
This is a fucking terrible carry gun. Just get a p32 is you’re forcing yourself to stick to 32.

>>63915631
>threaded barrel
Nice
I think these things are pretty thick though

>>63915907
Good job reading the post knucklehead, this was prefaced with being the poorfag option

>>63915901
like what

>>63915901
>I wear normal people clothes.

>>63915921
I know it’s a poorfag thread. The p32 is the better poorfag option compared to the zastava

>>63915925
>>63915933
Big mad + replied twice

>>63915861
If you didn't anything other than fatboy carry (pocket) you'd understand that the opposite is true

>>63915934
Why would cheapo plastic amerishit be a better option over Trve Yvgo steel? And the plastic costs more to what, shoot worse because it's feather weight? The M70 is cheaper shoots better and is better built out of better materials

>>63915422
be ripped and your full size 9mm will be confused for another muscle

No thx I've been shafted hard enough

>>63915953
youre retarded, and probably fat or dress like a teenager

>>63915966
i swear some of you autists dont go outside.
have you ever had to pocket carry something for 8+ hours or just when you put on your basketball shorts to run to 7-11

>>63915376 (OP)
The PPK is a classic, so it's fun just to have, but it's also pretty outmoded, you can get a better gun in any of the given calibers, and you can get a better gun in a bigger caliber which isn't much larger than it.

>>63915393
>>63915417
Extremely concealable, but I personally would not feel the strongest confidence in .22 from such a short barrel.

>>63915422
>>63915845
I'm fairly fat and I could slip a whole CZ75 into my the pocket of my jeans without it showing. The clothes in question make a difference.

>>63915864
How would that work, exactly?

>>63915897
I don't see the point in a .32 that size.

>>63915966
Because the Kel-Tec is smaller and lighter for the same magazine capacity, has a better trigger, and has accessories like a laser and belt clip if you should want them.
The M70 is comparable to a PPK in weight and size, which isn't all that appealing for the small caliber, particularly when OP is looking for something to pocket carry.

Anon you know the .32 memes are just that

glog 43, not the X version. i carry mine with an empty chamber but its pretty easy to grip and rip

>>63919529
Why with an empty chamber?

>>63915393
>>63915417

This Hamre forge grips transforms the NAA minis from a novelty to a useable piece. Cocking the hammer is so much easier with these. The clip is nice, too.

>>63919546
because pocket holsters are jank and i really don't trust a cocked striker pistol sitting naked in my pocket.

.32 is based. Pocket carry is fine. Dunno why everyone here always has an aneurysm over anyone choosing an option other than a double stack polymer 9mm appendix carry.

>>63915509
Always the best choice. Nothing carries like a p32, and its fun to shoot as well.

>>63915631
I want one bad but compared to a p32 this thing is a certified chunk.

>>63919529
>>63919556
>Won't carry anything less than 9mm
>Has suboptimal setup to accommodate 9mm, gets smoked by a pocket 32


Get a DAO pistol, ya goof. A 32 snub or 32 auto would be way better ready to go than a 9mm that isn't loaded.

>>63919601
regardless of pistol style im not carrying one naked in a pocket, that is irresponsible.

I like P32 but I assume semi-rimmed is more prone to malfunctions

>>63919640
It could in theory, but it's less of a problem for single stacks, because you just stack the rims ahead of each other, and there's not enough length/capacity for this to add up to troublesome levels.

>>63919551
>Hamre forge grips
50 bucks and they dont even give you a clip? which is $30 fucking dollars? get fuck out of here thats nuts

>>63919640
For something like the Czech Skorpion, it has a double stack mag, but since it's not going inside a pistolgrip, they designed it to stack the cartridges rim to rim, making for a tiny banana mag (plantain mag?), so that 20 rounds can fit and feed comfortably and freely.

Ruger LCP 1 literally disappears in any pocket and .380 is Good Enough(tm)

LCR, some swear by .327FM
Otherwise Kahr PM9

I know it's the meme gun of the year but bodyguard 2.0. Wife got one as a purse gun. Tried it at the range and I liked it so much I bought myself one on the way home. It's replaced my 9mm as my daily carry. I can even carry it in pajama pants or sweatpants it's so light there's no excuse to not have it on you. I use the 10+1 magazine for pocket carry and the 12+1 one if I'm actually iwb carrying.

>>63915585
>also what the fuck kind of factory searches employees?
Not him, but gun factories do it for reasons that should be obvious.

>>63919699
based

>>63915509
Why did they discontinue the P3AT

is 22lr enough to kill?
yes
is it enough for self defense?
no, and it's not reliable enough because it's rim fire

is 32acp enough to kill?
yes
is it enough for self defense?
no, not really

is 38 special enough to kill?
yes
is it enough for self defense?
yes
is a revolver a good idea in 2025?
no, move on

after combing through ballistics reports, 380 is the smallest practical self defense round that has the power and ballistics profile to put someone down fast enough. but if you are carrying something over 9mm, you are just being silly.

>>63919852
i hate it.
it looks dumb, and it's better than my LCP Max

>>63915376 (OP)
NAA Guardian is underrated. I also got a Jennings J22 to run reliably, I put scotch tape around the bottom of the mag to stop it from moving in the magwell. I then filed down the dimple that forms when you dryfire the gun to disassemble it. It bulges out into the chamber and interrupts feeding. I practiced drawing it with only 3 fingers to keep the web of my hand away from the slide, and I keep it well lubricated. I inherited it and it just werks, I don't carry it loaded though. I consider it acceptable when carrying in low risk areas, 99% of the places I go really. I also carry pepper spray everyday so it's not my only self defence tool.

Bersa 380 CC

it is as small as the 365 X, SA/DA with 8 round mags that aren't too expensive.

>>63919613
You don't have to, anon. Get a pocket holster if it concerns you.

>>63919681
Welcome to 2025, where everything is ridiculously expensive.

Totally transforms the gun though, especially cocking it with one hand. I do use the clip but it's not necessary.

>>63920301
What does 38 do that 32 won't do? Neither are going to expand. A p32 gives you 8 shots and a 38 is 5 shots.

Stop worrying about caliber. Add long as your are carrying something, the odds of your walking away without even needing to fire are pretty high.

Yes, it would be better to have a g19 on your all the time but it's unrealistic.

>>63920978
yeah but the point is that pocket holsters add a ton of girth and almost defeat the purpose of a pocket pistol. besides if you are pocket carrying you clearly dont think you will be in any danger. I carry this when im too lazy to put on my enigma

>>63920992
>Neither are going to expand

you can absolutely get .38s that expand out of a snub, dude.

>>63915376 (OP)
I've carried a S&W Bodyguard .380 for like 15 years now with no one being any the wiser.
