Pocket pistols are small, concealable handguns designed for self-defense or backup use. They are typically chambered in calibers such as .380 ACP, .32 ACP, or 9mm Luger, and have a limited magazine capacity compared to full-size handguns.
Pocket pistols offer a number of advantages over larger handguns, including their concealability, ease of carry, and reduced recoil. They are ideal for concealed carry, as they can be easily hidden in a pocket or purse. They are also relatively lightweight and easy to shoot, making them a good choice for shooters with smaller hands or less experience.
