Need some help with a Sub-Compact

[crawleigh0911]

The P-07 is about 7.2" over all, so im looking for something 6.5 and less. I might even be being unreasonable....i have no clue.

Are you stuck on having to carry a 9mm? If not, the aforementioned revolvers make excellent choices, as do several hammer-fire DA/SA .380?s. I find myself carrying either my Sig P230 or Bersa Thunder 380 a lot more nowadays, as they are both lightweight,  handle very well, are very comfortable worn IWB/AIWB considering I?m sitting the better part of 12-14 hours daily, and not to mention they are both pretty good shooters (especially with Speer Gold Dots and Hornady XTP). They?re also smaller and lighter than the P-07. Just a thought...

I am not necessarily stuck with 9mm, its just what my EDC takes and I'm a sucker for continuity. my wife carries a Kimber micro .380 and loves it. DA/SA or SAO is my main preference. Caliber not so much....I would be open to revolvers.

For a single stack 9mm, Glock 43/43X.  For .380, Glock 42.  Excellent, reasonably priced, reliable, lightweight and superb aftermarket options.

I've already been there and done it with Glock. I am just not a fan.

Second Bersa Thunder 380. Actually I have the Plus, which carries 15 rounds. It is just a bit, tiny bit thicker in the grip than the single stack Thunder. Shoots well. I wanted to like the RAMI, but just didn't fall in love with it. Love my P-07!

I do really like the RAMI, but if I just gotta go with something thinner, SW Shield would be my choice.  Very reliable and easy to transfer to even from shooting the larger CZ?s.

Quick runs, like exercise?

Something for the pocket is likely a striker fired affair, my only samples are the Sig P365 and Beretta Nano.  Light weight revolvers either scantium SW j frame or Charter undercover lite in a pocket holster wont weigh you down.

Depending on what you are really asking, the p07 in a different mode of carry/holster might fill the need.

I more meant like corner store, things where my edc isnt really necessary.

Hmmm.  My opinoon is NOT to let your guard down just because of a qick trip next door.  Check out Galco's Undercover Wraps belly band.  It will easily accommodate a P07 (of full size 75B for that matter).  The belly band supports the gun so you can still wear loose gym shorts or pajama bottoms and T shirt if you want to keep the pants and stiff belt, etc. At home.  It has 2 holster pockets to accommodate either a small wheel gun or med/lrg pistol.

Don't get me wrong, of course you buy another gun, too!

A used Sig P232 will give you small DA/SA, but in .380.  My go-to for a small 9mm is the Sig P938, that has 1911-like controls and is a SAO carried cocked and locked.  With the 7 round mag, I can just get all my fingers around the grip.

Cyanide's first reply mentioning Beretta'PX4sc is very similar in size to the Rami. I have both and they both see SD duty.  Even though a stock PX4sc has a safety/decocker, meaning safety still disables the gun in DA mode, it is a simple spring removal to convert it to decock only.  13+1 with flush fit mags or pinlky extension that clicks down (really cool) for full grip.  Takes fullsize 17 round mags with sleeve for integrated grip fit if desired.  Maybe a tad lighter than the Rami, but a wee bit thicker.  I use a OWB high ride leather holster designed for the Beretta for Rami carry and no problems, good retention.  I can't just stick my PX4 in my purpose built Rami holster.  The PX4sc has 3 backstraps to suit your hand size and it is of the Browning tilt barrel lock up which I like rather than the rotating barrel designs of the rest of the PX4 series.  I have a very difficult time in assessing which one is better!  In my opinion, they both shoot like full size guns.  However, I have no problems with tucking my pinky finger under the mag.  If you need a full grip, the PX4 definitely would get the nod of the 2.  That it can also be had in 40 cal--bonus, but perhaps not necessary.

Have you looked at the Ruger LCR 9mm? 5-shot compact revolver using moon clips. 2 loaded moon clips fit nicely in a Walgreen's prescription bottle.

How about a Kahr?
