I just wanna play w one now. Dang you CHL forums..
Took a better look at the photos. It's very compact. Still disappointed it doesn't hold more :/
Your post caused me to look at a comparison next to the PM9. It is about the same width, which can mean as much as anything for concealed carry. It is about a half inch longer and a quarter inch taller than the PM9. I get the same amount of rounds but get a round with better ballistic performance in the PM9. It is quiet a bit larger than the other .380's made for concealed/pocket carry.
If Glock ever comes out with this same gun in a 9mm I will have one.
I assume you mean a single stack 9mm. I would have to go for that one myself. I have heard more than one person express the desire for the single stack 9mm Glock.

Yes, but a single stack closer to the size of the 42 than the 26.

Street price looks close to $400. It might be a good choice for people with arthritis or other recoil challenges
