I like both. But specifically for carry, a lightweight j-frame is the smallest, lightest gun that propels a round I feel confident with (.38 sp) and will fit in my pocket. As others have mentioned, nothing carries more easily in a pocket than a Kel-Tec in .32 or .380. I had a .380. My choice for moving away from that was not made based on simplicity, reliability or "sex-appeal", but was pretty much based on caliber choice. When I belt carry, I carry an auto.
