The Diamondback DB380 is about as small as a functional centerfire pistol gets. With a 2.8-inch barrel and a slim polymer frame, it disappears in a pocket holster, which is exactly the point: the gun you actually have on you beats the one left at home.

This Gen IV version wears a two-tone stainless finish. The .380 ACP chambering keeps recoil manageable in a pistol this light and, with modern defensive loads, gives real capability at the close distances where a deep-concealment pistol is meant to be used. A practical backup or warm-weather carry option.
