While I have owned a number of autos many years ago I never really seriously packed one but a few times. I do own a highly customized remington rand by pachmyer done back in the 50s. This remington appeals to me. For pocket or concealed carry it sounds ideal. Just a extra magazine and I would be in business. I did have a couple .380s years ago, but this being in 9mm sounds great. I dont know much about .40s but understand that will be next. If this gun proves out for reliability, I bet it will become a real high production gun outrunning just about anything else. The keltec might be lighter but its plastic. Most of old guys in my age bracket will go for a good metal 9mm pocket auto that have stuck with snub revolvers. Years ago I bought a browning BDA 380, it was nice but it dawned on me if I wanted a gun that big it should be in 9mm. Now it is AND it aint plastic!
