Default You pick the smallest vest pocket?

Some people say the Bernadelli. Some say the Walther9 or maybe the Baby Browning. You be the judge? In your hand, they are all very small! They are the smallest in my collection.
Thanks for looking,
Joe

Joe-

Which is most reliable? How do they shoot at, say, seven yards?

Thanks,

T Star, As far as Reliability, they are all quality vest pockets. I'm sure every one would have their own opinion on reliability or which ones they favor. Maybe some forum members can answer your questions?
Thanks,
Joe

I always enjoy seeing Colt 1908 Vest Pocket's. Nice piece Cocked & Locked, is yours factory nickel?

My grandfather bought this one new (in 1920 I believe) and I'm pleased to have it.
