If you are looking for a small concealed, you have to try the LCP. I shot mine for the first time the other dayhttp://aa.lgv.facdn.com/v/img/baloonBlue.png (http://www.co-ar15.com/forums/#). It's accurate, goes bang every single time, easy to clean, easy to conceal and you don't even know it's there when you are carrying it. I have bought a lot of guns and have never been happier with one than this one. It's well worthhttp://aa.lgv.facdn.com/v/img/baloonBlue.png (http://www.co-ar15.com/forums/#) the money. JMO.
I carrry mine all the time but would not call it accurate. My Bersa .380 will do much smaller groups. Love the size but I won't be doing any head shots with it.

100% agree on this one. But the LCP is a great backup gun.

Gotta agree with you there. Definitely a body shot gun if I ever have to use it (and hopefully that's never!). I do carry mine a ton though too
My XD and Kahr = different story. But in a defense situation, I would shoot for the body anyways

The only time I would ever attempt a head shot would be after plenty of leathal rounds were in the body. I really like the way my LCP shoots and I consider it very accurate for what it is.

This is the gun my wife carries. But, she is going to upgrade to something with more capacity and a larger caliber. (9mm) probably the Kahr.

Here's my little LCP in a perfectly legal holster. Yes, it is legal to carry in this holster. Also considerably cuts down on felt recoil.

You just need to pay the $5 stamp to register it as an AOW right? That's what I planned on getting if/when I get one of those.

NOPE!! The BATF apparently decided that there is so much of the gun exposed, there is no requirement to register it like there was with the High Standard derringers. Those little holsters (for the Hi Std) had too much of the gun hidden to the point where it did not look like a firearm. I have done the research on this before I bought the holster. If/when you get your LCP, be sure to try one of these holsters. They will also fit the KelTec P3AT .380 perfectly.
I had the opp to try one at the range a couple months ago. I really liked the form factor and design but I struggled big-time with the looonngg (to me) trigger pull.

I was going to ask why that holster wouldn't be legal till you explained it. If too much of the gun is hidden, would firing from a coat pocket them make it an AOW? ;)
Personally, I use an uncle mikes poket holster. Hard to beat 10 bucks. I use the ones designed for "most .22/25 pistols".
Ahh, I didn't realize that a specific model of holster like that was in the clear. That's pretty cool.
