Real pocket “pocket” pistols.

I carry the .380 a lot. But I don’t really like it. Good sights though, I like them on such a small gun. The best HP ammo only pokes a .35 cal. hole through. I’m not overwhelmed with penetration. On sick goats anyway. The Beretta .22 is great on the tractor or mowing for snakes. But the reliability suffers because of the mags. In a pocket, the waxy .22 LR picks up lint and grit. It locks up the elevator. The mags are skeletonized too, making the problem worse. The little gun is quite accurate and will run great, WITH a clean grit free mag. The antique little Astra is flawless. It does exactly what it was designed to do, SIX times, every time. If I could see the sights it would shoot into a teacup at 50 yds, really! Colt contracted Astra several times to make them some guns under the table, so they could market them. A hit with something is better than a miss with anything I figure. I like it.

Im breaking out the .22 wheel guns. I’d about kill for a 2” M34 S&W. My 63 and SP101 will have to do.
