In my shoes, what would you buy and why?

I wouldnt limit it to just a MG, I just bought a Tangfolio tz75 series88 9mm for 350/ with a 41ae barrel and recoil assy. about 2 hours ago .
Shop around and you mightbe surprised what ya can get for 350.00

Currently, Kel-Tec owns the mousegun market. If I could only get 1 gun, and only had $350 to spend, I'd look around for a decent used .38 snubby, Smith and Wesson or Taurus. However, some people's lifestyles don't permit carrying anything except a mousegun. Better a .32 in the pocket, than a .38 home in the closet.

Kel Tec makes some dandy little pocket guns. I'm a much bigger fan of the Colt Mustangs but they are getting scarce. When you can find one they are SALTY!!!

I'd go with a Keltec 32 or 380, if I were U. I looked thru them all last year and went w/ that.

It comes with a free guinea pig too, as they are all out of mice

I looked into this one having never heard of 'em. It looks like it would be too big for what I want. I want to go smaller, mainly thinner than my G23.

Truthfully, I haven't given a revolver much consideration but I should. I loved my Ruger Security Six.

Yup, I got that , I just meant if you're not in a blazing hurry you can find a lot better than a mouse gun (and still be small enough) for 350.

I never thought about a mouse gun as mine was a surprise from my wife. It's a K/T 3AT. I started shooting it and with a few pointers from a friend of mine I got to shooting it fairly good. I go no where without it now. It stays in my right front pants pocket. I am sold on them as a bug.

Kel-Tec P3 AT , so small easy to carry , pocket holster here's the one I use www.desantisholster.com ...

Or SW 642 ...

I did a little research on revolvers but they are just to wide for what I’m looking for. I’m leaning to the P3AT.

That does look very nice and at an excellant price. I looked over the other stuff they had too. I could spend some money there that's for sure.

Thanks for the link.
