I like a little heft in hand guns and fountain pens but lately I've been looking at some smalls like North American Arms .380 Guardian and Seecamp .380. No prob with .380s, owned a PPK for a while. Even looked at the .32s - Quite a thing for someone who was born and raised on the .45. I want something small that sits in my pocket like a wad of bills, a handful of acorns, a cell phone. When it comes to the caliber argument, let me put it this way... I could be handed a .22 and still be the one who walks away. Not so much good as smart and experienced.
