I currently carry a Sig P229 DAK in .40 S&W. I'm looking for a summer carry, preferrably something I can pocket easily. I don't want anything that feels as cheap as the Kel-Tec 380's. I saw some pictures of the Micro Eagle (Micro Eagle Pistol: Magnum Research) that looked interesting, but nowhere around here (Kitsap County) has it available to shoot that I know of. I don't mind shooting as low as 380, but I don't want to go as low as 22. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Ruger LCP .380 I love mine, and it doesn't feel cheap like the Kel-Tec pistols. |

Yeah, I've been looking at options since I posted and that one is looking like the best so far. Still interested in the Micro Eagle, and I'm not sure why. It's pretty damn ugly. I guess it falls under the same catagory that the A-10 Warthog does. So ugly, yet so pretty.

You could always go for a small revolver. Never thought I'd carry, heck even own, a wheel gun but I recently bought a Ruger LCR and it slips into a pocket quite nicely!

I've shot a few revolvers and enjoyed them quite a bit. I put 5 rounds inside of a quarter at 15 yards the first time I tried a S&W Model 60 .357. I think for my pocket carry I'm going to want a semi-auto though.

I've seen both Glock 27's easily pocketed as well as my Taurus Millenium PT145 that I can pocket easily. It just depends on how "baggy" your jeans are as well.. I don't wear thug jeans/baggy ass jeans, but my taurus fits into my front/back pocket quite easily and isn't seen

suprising the taurus 709 is nice in 9mm. Haven't really shot it yet but light and easy to carry

I've read some pretty good reviews on the Kahr P380. It's not as small as the LCP but it is about the same size as the Kel-Tec. Unlike the LCP and the P-3AT, the Kahr has sights.
