While not a very small pistol, I suppose concealment with the right holster could be done. These are typical of the breed-good pistols, not quite to Berettas standards but close enough for Government work. I wouldn't be afraid to own one if the opportunity presented itself, a good buddy has one, he really likes his. I would have to see what else was available in the same price range before picking it over some other pistol-you know, get the best for dollars spent. Last one I saw was around 300, new at a gunshow, I'd probably pay that much, not any more for one.
