ah yes im aware of it, ruger is making a gun based off it actually.
no i did'nt know it's weight.. like i said weight is the least important thing with me if i can haul around a 32oz(unloaded) 92 and not know it then any compact is gonna be fine.
again i say.. yes the gun is small.. but not worth the cost, capacity and stopping power loss over a larger 9mm..
im not gonna notice an extra .25 inch width, length i might enjoy but the height is to small.. infact i held one in the shop and my ring and pinky finger was both hanging off it.
dont know what kinda recoil the gun has but im not comfortable carrying a gun im gripping with half a hand.
im really glad this gun works for you, if it was the absolute biggest you could conceal then go for it.. i'll take a little bit bigger gun with more firepower, and larger capacity & enough room for a proper grip.. the size trade off imo is worth it.
oh and most .380's are not that small, there may very well be a 9mm nearly as small as that but it would'nt matter because i would'nt beable to grip it.
