      Bass Pro is a fun place to shop, but about 5 miles away (Ripon / Barnwood Arms) has an indoor range, and more (or as good) selection, and the prices are as good or better and I've shopped both... last time I was at Bass Pro (yesterday) they're selection seemed pretty thin.........I'd guess there are as good / better places in Sacto...

        I can highly recommend the Kahr P9 (K9 if you like steel, CW9 for the budget polymer) or for something smaller the PM9 (CM9 budget gun coming out this year)

        Both will be slimmer and smaller than your SP-101 and still have the DA trigger pull you are used to, while having a nicer trigger feel


        This...

        I also have Kahr P9 It's all you need in a small carry gun and 9mm... works well. If you need smaller the Kahr PM9... Smaller than that you need to learn how to dress around your gun... no offense..meant.

                Do you even own a sub-compact Glock? Glock 26/27 is a perfect size (small, light, high capacity, etc..) for IWB. If you want something smaller than a subcompact glock, then look into pocket gun not subcompact gun.
                Any gun owner who does not support the NRA is a freeloader.

                  I carried a 27 for almost 1 yr. it is a little fat and heavy for my taste.

                    Alot of folks here seem to be suggesting the g26. For ccw on a bike, I have to say I would go with a G27. I own the G26 and like it. Reliable and holds a solid 10 + 1 rounds.

                    But on a bike, I would want the extra power of the 40 sw. G27 would give you a 9 + 1 capacity, which is as good as it gets in 40sw.

                    I have held the pm9 and can tell you that its a sweet feeling little gun. Good luck with the new ccw choice.

                      You can get the pinky ext. that will add you one extra round on the G27 that would make it 10+1 – that is the way I use to carry it. That’s all you get in Ca.
                      Unless you owed hi cap mags before the ban.
                      I still like my Kahar P9 to carry much skinnier and lighter

                        My Kahr PM9 is perfect for my CCW. Definitely worth the $. The 200 round break in is accurate; smooth as silk after that. I got mine at Rver City Gun Exchange; they had the best price on it.

                          He's right. I forgot about those pinky extensions. That would give you extra room to grab onto with that extra round (I know I'm captain obvious). Glock 27 is really a great option for reliability and firepower. If you can handle the snappy recoil and shoot it well, I'd go with that.

                              Have you taken a look at the Swiss mini-gun? It's not on the roster so I guess you'd have to find one on the used market.

                              Meet the pistol that fits in your pocket - and packs a hell of a punch. The SwissMiniGun is the size of a key fob but fires tiny 270mph bullets powerful enough to kill at close range. Officially the world's smallest working revolver, the gun is being marketed as a collector's item and measures just 2.16 inches long (5.5cm). It fires real 4.53 bullets up to a range of 367ft (112m)

                                Glock 26/27/33, Walther PPS, Springfield EMP, or a 1911 commander sized gun.
