Smallest/lightest pistol that’s fun to shoot

[douglasfir]

What are some recommendations for small, concealable, shootable handguns?

I’ve come to a few realizations. First, life is too short to have guns that I don’t enjoy shooting (like my horrible little keltec p32 - unusable sights and no fun at all to shoot). Second, I’m never going to be one of those guys who can conceal a Glock 19 or bigger at all times.

So I’m looking for options in the micro-compact range. Glock 42, S&W bodyguard 2.0, etc. I’m thinking to go 380 or smaller for lower recoil.

I’m also considering something like the LCR revolver in 22 LR or 22 mag. I enjoy shooting revolvers and shoot the LCR well, but it’s not much fun to shoot in 38.

P365X is a really nice setup and very easy to conceal. Grip is just enough for my hands to make it pleasant and accurate. The normal grip is a little too short. The X grip is nice enough my wife stole it and put it on her EDC…
