The Beretta 84/85 looks very similar to the Browning, except the open top barrel ... there appears to be some connection between Beretta/FNH and Browning?

 

 

The Browning BDA 380 was made by Beretta for Browning, who was owned by FN at the time. The knock against the BDA 380 was its size.

 

Sig made the larger BDA's, for Browning, in .45 ACP, .38 Super and 9mm. These were actually P220's and are much coveted by collectors today (esp in calibers other than .45 ACP).

 

Adios,

Which is what is making me lean towards the 9mm in a big way Shane.

 

i really need to shoot the kahr and the PPS. Really digging the PPS. Buddy has one and loves it.

Was that the regular PPK or PPK/S? I think the S&W models of the PPK/S have an extended boattail so that it won't cut your hand.

 

It's a PPK. The PPK/S has a slightly longer grip so it holds one extra round. It is the beavertail that cuts, the corners of the beavertail is square and sharp so the snappy recoil from the blowback design will cut the web of my hand. The older German/French/Interarms models do not have that beavertail, some people get bit either by the hammer and the slide but I'd rather have that than an ugly and sharp beavertail that doesn't look like it belongs there in the first place.

 

The Kahr P380 is a much ligher gun but due to the locked breach action it's much milder to shoot.

I gave a + to Frank and Shane. Glock 19 if you can conceal it, Glock 26 if you can't.

Glock 19 cant hit sh!t with and I hated the G26 I had.

Maybe glock 19 with grip reduction?

 

It is the absolute best bang for its size. 15+1 of 9mm and can still be concealed under a T shirt during the summer time. Its my concealment pistol and it does it quite well. im 180 6'1 and I never print at all with a crossbreed supertuck

Glock 19 cant hit sh!t with and I hated the G26 I had.

 

Oh yeah, you sold her here right?

 

What about a 38 snubby?
