I carry a Kimber Ultra-Carry.  Just the right size and its shootability is out of this world!

THE POCK RIVER GUN IS A LITTLE ON THE HEAVY SIDE FOR CARRY ISN'T IT? OR AM I THINKING OF ANOTHER COMPANY.
I THOUGHT I HELD ONE AT THE GUN SHOP BOUGHT THOUGHT IT TO BE HEAVY. ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS

I agree with you curries103. IMO Kimber shoots out of this world. Never had a problem. Close to 2500 rounds.

This is what it looks like.



If you notice all the edges are buffed down, smooth like a womans body.  It doesn't have any sharp edges to get hung up on any piece of clothing.

RGJ,

I don't think you could go wrong with any of the makes you mentioned. Para, Kimber, Springfield and Sig make fine guns.

Good luck with your decision and post a pic of what you get.

I haven't had any problems with it, I don't know what it weighs, but I carry without a belt .

THIS IS WHAT I PICKED UP. KIMBER PRO CARRY II WITH THE CRIMSON TRACE LASER GRIPS. I GOT IT NEW FROM MY DEALER FOR $ 850.00 WHICH I THOUGHT WAS A GOOD PRICE. I AM ALSO LOOKING AT THE PARA PXT FOR A BACK-UP OR SECOND GUN. ALWAYS LIKE TO HAVE SOMETHING TO SWITCH TO INCASE I AM WORKING ONE THE PRIMARY GUN.  LET ME KNOW ABOUT WHAT YOU THINK OF THE PARA PXT MODEL. AS ALWAYS THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT. R.G.J.

 ;D WOW IS ALL I CAN SAY ABOUT THIS GUN. A LOT OF FUN, AND THE LASER IS RIGHT ON. I HAVE ONLY HAD A CHANCE TO GET TO THE RANGE ONCE WITH IT SO FAR. ONLY A HUNDRED OR SO ROUNDS FIRED SO FAR BUT I CAN'T WAIT TO GO AGAIN. WHEN I WAS AT THE RANGE THE TEMPATURE WAS 11 DEGREES F. BUT STILL HAD FUN. RGJ
