Yuck, yuck, yuck!! LOL
What a nasty little gun....almost as nasty as Kel Tec's P-3AT. I wouldn't own either of those guns again, even if someone gave them to me.
Funny how there's something for everyone and we gun people are very opinionated :)
To the original poster, looks like you have a nice little list to get started with so now it's like Zamboni said....your best bet is to handle them all, compare them, and start narrowing down that list....and happy shopping! :)

I just put my order in on a Seecamp LWS32 and on the list for the LWS380. The first I'll get in 2-4 months and the other maybe in a year. Worth it. A work of art. A legacy piece. And reliable though finicky.

Get some cargo shorts and cargo pants. With all the stuff people stuff into their pockets "cell phones of all shapes and sizes, keys, wallets, iPads, can a Vernors" if it don't print it's a fit!

Ruger LCR
Ruger LCP
Sig P238
Kahr CM9
Glock 26 or 27
S&W 642 or 627
All are good choices in my opinion.

No experience with anything other than my Ruger LCR .38 +P. Disappears in my front jeans pocket, IWB and even OWB under a polo shirt. Soft shooter. Smooooth trigger pull. All I got for ya.

For pocket duty, I use a S&W 442. I have an LCP, but it was too unreliable to carry.

The only one I have experience with is the Beretta nano. I can pocket carry it in most of my pants, even my jeans. It is very accurate and actually fun to shoot (which I hear some pocket guns are not). I got mine in early December and it has run flawlessly. It is also easy to carry IWB. It is the only gun I have tried to carry IWB under only a t-shirt, and it just dissappeared.

.380's are for girls. That's why they paint them pink. Ever see a pink .45?

If you want a 40 for carry that is only .04" bigger than the Kahr pm9/cm9 try the pm/cm40, talk about a pocket pistol, how bout a pocket rocket! The recoil isn't that bad at all especially for self defense ranges.
