The new walther pps is about the same size as a kahr pm9/pm40. I own a pm9 and have ordered a walther pps. I don’t care for the trigger on the pm9. It’s too small. THere’s not enough room in the trigger guard for my finger. I’m hoping the pps is a little more comfortable. If not, I’ll have to start looking at something else. I might end up going for one of those new little 5 shot scandium revolvers by smith and wesson. The problem I have with carrying a handgun is that I get sick of the nuisance and start leaving it home. I starting to think I’d be better off with a little .32 if it means I have it on me more often.
I understand the frustration of having to remember to carry, or even what to carry. I get that way sometimes, but I remember the days I was frustrated and carried anyway, and it saved my life. Depending on your location, there are a number of ways to carry that are easy on the hip or pocket. Finding that small package to fit a large hand is always a problem. Have you looked at the XD's in Sub-compact from Springfield? Or perhaps one of the Taurus Milliniums or their Titanium 45's like this one. Lightweight, big-bore.
