re: .22 magnum for concealment?

I don't have problems with 22 Mag as much as with the NAA 22 mag. Maybe with their large grip that makes the pistol fold up like a pocket knife? I'm a believer that a gun you are comfortable carrying all the time no matter the caliber is much better than a gun you are not comfortable carrying. When I say comfortable I mean comfortable wearing, comfortable with the level of "printing" on your body, comfortable operating and delivering your shot quickly and accurately.

I let my carry permit lapse so I don't carry any more. This was in the late 90's early 2000's and the handgun market was a little different than it is now. I could never find a compact 9mm that I enjoyed carrying dressed normally with a shirt tucked in. I started carrying less and less. When the Keltec P32 first came on the market I grabbed one. It was a gamechanger for me for carrying. Super light not much bigger than my cell phone and slips in my pocket which let me carry it wearing just about anything. I used a back pocket "wallet" carry holster. Dang thing went with my everywhere. For me comfort was my #1 concern when carrying. If you aren't comfortable with it you aren't going to carry it.

My mom carries a Beretta Bobcat in 22lr. She has a really weak grip and that was the first pistol she's found she is comfortable enough using that she actually carries it.
