Kahr's P-series pistols are built around a smooth, consistent double-action-only trigger and an unusually slim profile, and the P380 is about as compact as a centerfire pistol gets while remaining a real shooter. The locked-breech design, rather than the simple blowback most pocket .380s use, noticeably softens felt recoil for a gun this size.

This one pairs a stainless slide with a black polymer frame and a 2.5 in. barrel, and ships with two magazines. It disappears in a pocket holster, which is exactly the point.
