[QUOTE="Glock 'em down, post: 2883452, member: 684"] If you already have a Glock 19 as your primary weapon, why not simplify your ammo and go with a Glock 43 instead? It's just a whisper larger than the Glock 42, which won't be noticed in the pocket, and you have the 9mm power. Don't get me wrong...I'm not calling the .380 cartridge a pusillanimous, sub-caliber round, God knows I wouldn't wanna be shot with it, but if your main pistol is a 9mm it just makes sense that your hideout pistol should be too. We are living in some awesome times when it comes to pocket guns dudes. When I was a young man, the smallest guns we could shove in our pocket (that was a 'major' caliber) was a Smith & Wesson J frame. Anything smaller was chambered in .22LR, .25ACP or maybe a .32ACP. Hell, even the .380s back then (Walther PPK and others) were too big (and heavy) for pocket carry. But then again...we all carried wheel guns too. The only autos available weighed a ton and basically your only choices was a Colt 1911, a Browning Hi Power or a Smith & Wesson model 39 or 59. When the Glock came along in 1985, the handgun world changed [B]FOREVER![/B] [/QUOTE]
