Keltec p32- extremely light and small, low recoil, 7+1,

Ruger LCP- kicks like a mule

S&w bodyguard - horrible trigger

Glock 42- low recoil, easy to shoot, 6+1 or 7+1

S&w 642 - long heavy trigger, kicks like a mule, low capacity

nice pocket pals...G42 has been on my radar for awhile

Where’s the Seecamp?

[Whiskey_Tango]

How 'bout dimensional comparison?

[bubbapug1]

Keltec wins all around.

I also have one. Great trigger considering it’s a DAO

I also have a Kahr. Great gun except it doesn’t feed reliably - so light it’s not even worthy of being a paper weight.

I had a seacamp. Horrible trigger, sights, and it keyholed ammo at 4 yards. Heavier than a brick I might add.

Beretta tomcat is excellent but in the heavy side.

No Sig P238?

[plumbum]

Yeah yeah, rub it in!
Personally the G42 seems like a great piece, thank goodness the roster keeps my wallet from being emptied constantly.

I’m not a huge fan of 1911 type pistols and I can admit in was pleasantly surprised by the sig 238 when I tried it. I didn’t think it was magical enough to switch from the 642 I’ve carried for years, but I would grab one up if I found a cheap deal on one.

[RollingCode3]

They only feed hollowpoint especially at a buck a round. No thanks.

No Sig P238?

this, and why no kahr p380?

[9Cal_OC]

this, and why no kahr p380?

Right, the two most popular pocket guns in CA (due to roster)

[GlockN'Roll]

this, and why no kahr p380?

I own and have carried the G42 (almost as large and heavy as a G43), the P238 (again large and heavy for a .380) and the P380.

The P380 gets the nod for pocket carry...

S&W 340PD- 14oz. loaded with CT grips. Talk about kicking like a mule! Also, with the LCP; installing a 13lb. recoil spring and stainless guide rod helps to further mitigate recoil along with that Hogue Handall grip.

Beretta Tomcat?

[deadcoyote]

I’ve always liked the Tomcats but I believe they have some issues with longevity if you shoot them a lot. You could also go with the .25 model of a different name, but .32 is about the floor of my comfort zone.
