380 Concealed Carry Pistols
In the last decade the 380 concealed carry pistols have been the go-to firearm. The slug is the same size as a 9mm but with a smaller cartridge. This allows the firearms to be that much smaller while still packing a decent enough punch. The majority of the .380 Semi-Autos are considered pocket guns and will be limited to a 2-finger grip. However there a few that either come with or have options for pinky extensions.
[sym_ads id=”11614″]
There’s a huge debate on whether the 380 is an effective round for concealed carry. Watch this video when considering a 380 concealed carry as your choice. It can be an effective choice when using the right ammunition. This ammo tends to be expensive. It is not recommended to be used on the range for target practice.
Remember most of these pistols can be used as a pocket gun. Many can even be used as a backup 380 concealed carry gun in addition to your larger caliber. There’s no right or wrong. It’s all a matter of what fits you the best.

If a larger caliber sounds better for than a 380 concealed carry, check out the 9mm and the 40 S&W pistols. Many of those have a higher stopping power and are now made in a more compact frame. Also check out the 38 Special & 357 instead of the 380 concealed carry firearms.
9mm Concealed Carry Pistols
After the rise in popularity in .380’s, manufacturers started shifting their focus towards 9mm concealed carry pistols. They are only 2mm longer than a .380, so why not try to make small pocket carries? They are the same slug size of .380’s but with a larger kick to them. Also be sure to check out the 40S&W firearms. Many of the larger 9mm’s will share a frame with .40 caliber handguns.

40 Concealed Carry Pistol
Recently there has been an influx in .40 Caliber handguns by manufacturers. It’s partially due to the fact that 9mm and .40 Cal slugs are only .02 inches apart in slug size. This makes it easy to use the same frame for 9mm and .40S&W. Also there has been a shortage of 9mm’s recently, making the 40 easier to find.
In addition the .40S&W is also a more versatile round. Magazines for .40S&W can also be used for .357Sig rounds. Several handguns on this list are actually able to swap out the barrel for to be able to fire a .357Sig.

45 ACP Concealed Carry Pistols
The most common of the larger auto handguns is the 45ACP. It’s most known for the 1911 model that was adopted by the military. There is a considerable amount of people that swear by this caliber. It has a lot of stopping power. Unfortunately because of its size, it also has a smaller round capacity. Also they tend to be rather heavy.
