    Personally I'm looking forward to the Boberg if it ever goes into production:

    The unique action allows the barrel to be moved back over an inch so that the overall pistol profile is incredibly small.

    Wow, that Boberg XR9S (the shorty model) is one interesting-looking design. I cannot believe, from the diagram of the XR9S on the linked page, how far back the barrel sits. There's like, no frame left forward of the trigger guard!

    I looked at the Rohrbaughs with interest, but saw enough reports about reliability that it scared me off. Apparently it's not easy to build a VERY small centerfire pistol and have it feed and fire reliably. Looking forward to see if this design works.

    Here is a pretty good size comparison of some pocket guns. http://www.mouseguns.com/PocketAutoComparison.pdf

    I'm looking at the two Kel-tec 9mm models, PF9 and P11. Any opinions? The only difference seems to be capacity.

    I own a 10.5 ounce pocketable pistol that works very reliably with 9mm ammunition (actually .357 mag, but its the same bullet) . Its called a Smith and Wesson 342 PD.

    p.s. it only holds 5 rounds but its rock solid reliable.
    p.p.s. the bobberg is more like a Kahr in size, still much larger than the Rohrbach

    Rohrbaugh...

    Hefted one a few weeks back ad was impressed by the apparent build quality and it is positively tiny. It disappeared in my pocket... Nice..
