Colt revamps its .380 ACP pocket pistol to create the new polymer-frame Mustang XSP.

Walther’s latest iteration of the polymer-frame PPQ provides an excellent platform for a home-defense or duty pistol thanks to its ergonomic design and sights made for the fast pace of combat.

Beretta’s new Pico might be small, but thanks to a modular design based on a subchassis to which all other parts attach, it is big on ergonomics and customization for concealed carry.

Kimber’s latest series of 1911s offers an ideal selection for home defense and concealed carry. Depending on your needs, one of the .45 ACP Master Carry pistols will certainly fill them with aplomb.
