both the P32 and the P3AT are locked-breech designs, just like the Big Boys(tm).

I stand corrected.:D
The bite is probably due to weight/size.

I don't think the P38T is a bad choice .
My previous post were just tooffer other options for those that might want something in a larger caliber that would fit into a pocket.

Like I stated, I have been known to carry a Colt 1903 32acp (purchased new in 1926)when I need a pocket gun.


EDIT:
And the little guns aren't just for contact distances;).

Enjoy the little Bugger! the truth is that if you are comfortable carrying it and don't mind the bite, those P3's are a good tool to have. I just happen to have man sized hands :p.
lol Are you saying I DON'T have man sized hands?? :D Naw that thing is down-right tiny. I'm debating whether to get the mag extension or not.

I have a 3.65" barrel Bersa .45. I haven't tried it, but imagine it would fit in a jeans pocket nicely enough.

In this photo, it's second from the bottom. From top to bottom, the .40, the 9mm, the .45, and the 380. Notice the 45 isn't much bigger than the 380.
A woman after my own heart!

Great pic Tess!I bet the .45 Bersa weighs significantly more than the Bersa .380 even though both might fit in a pocket.
Sure does. But I though he was saying a larger gun didn't fit in the pocket. Fitting and carrying comfortably are not necessarily the same. I wouldn't carry the .45 in my pocket, but I do carry it in my purse from time to time, in the same holster I use for the 380.
