XDS, why carry any less than a 45 if you don't have to?
Does the P3AT have the same problem with rim lock that the P-32 does, with HP rounds? The P-32 magazine is built for FMJ, which is longer than HP, and HP rds. "lock rims" in the space fluctuations.
I enjoyed the pic of your nice vintage Colt .25 ACP.
Gun Master-No worries! My Old Pap had that pistol in his pocket until the day he died. I am happy to have it. Truth be told, my daily life keeps me in pretty safe places. But if I feel the need, I have a commander size 1911 and a .38 special snubby to keep me company.

That's why I carry my P-32 with the chambered round being a JHP, and the others in the mag are FMJ.
I also carry a S&W 638, .38Sp. +P, 17 oz. loaded.S&W 642. Small enough to actually be pocketable, sufficient cartridge, more reliable than a pocket semi auto
No. The rimlock is a .32 thing, not .380
If I carried a P32 (I used to as a BUG or deep concealment gun before I decided KelTec's were cheap and unreliable and not durable and sold all three of mine) I would carry all FMJ anyway, since adequate penetration is the most important terminal ballistic factor for stopping an attacker
