NAA Guardian .380, .32, 32 NAA. Nice little guns

R9 is $1000+ and reported to be finickey with ammo.

I'd recommend the Kahr PM9 for it's power, size, and light weight and a wonderful trigger, however, If you want to shoot it a lot and would carry IWB, then the MK9 is perfect.

But for a bug I'd imagine you're looking at Pocket carry or the like. If so the PM9 is it.

In .380 I have the Keltec P3AT and the Ruger LCP. Now that I've had both for a while I think the Keltec P3AT is a good choice and lower cost but the LCP is probably a bit more likely to be reliable right out of the box.

Have and carry both P3AT and P-11. No problems with either.

Sometimes carry Sig P229 but is much larger and heavier.

Colt Mustang if you can fine one. Their nice little pistol and if you lkike a 1911 these fit right in. I have 2 now I use one as my pocket pistol and BUG to my 1911. Ive retired at least for a while my Kel Tecs.
They haven't been made in 11 years and if you find one will be a little expensive

My R-9 is my work carry gun--and I really don't want to be "made" there. Although twice the weight of the KT P-32 that I used formerly (a 1st gen, that I still love), the shape of the R is nearly as easy for me to conceal. They are expensive, but if you buy and sell--trade especially--a couple of times looking for the right carry piece, the amount looks a little better. I was also amazed at how accurate I was shooting it--better that with the KT and WAY better than my 342pd, which I got years ago with work in mind. Plus, it's just flat-out a work of art (to me anyhow)

Kel-Tec PF-9

I just bought one yesterday. This gun is awesome. It needed no F&B either. Trigger pull is good too. When it was 2 hours old, Last night, I had already put over 100 rounds through it without any jams/mis-feeds/FTF/FTE/FTRB, etc...

The PF-9 is THE THINNEST out there. To me, being thin helps to conceal more than a quarter of an inch in length or height. I had this PF-9 in an IWB holster last night after shooting/cleaning. I sat in my lazyboy for about 3 hours with that gun smack in the middle of my back and there was no trouble. I also drove home with gun in my back without any discomfort.

It comes highly recommended from me.

BTW- my buddy bought the Kahr CW9 yesterday so we could compare the two. The PF-9 is thinner, shorter in length & height and was $140 less. The Kahr's trigger was better, but not enough for me to pay more $$.
