Pocket revolver smaller than a J-frame / Ruger LCR but larger than an NAA Mini?

I just noticed the error in the subject!

Supposed to be revolvers SMALLER than a jframe/LCR and bigger than an NAA mini.

Taurus makes an M380 which is a smaller-than-J-frame size revolver.

Of course, it's a Taurus. So, y'know. If you want to waste $325 re-learning the lesson everyone else has already learned you're free to do so.

edit: the one I handled in person was much smaller than the pictures make it look. It's a tiny little thing.

They did a run years ago but I don't know if they are imported or made here now.

They shouldn't have chosen .380 because the 5 shot cylinder will be the same diameter as a .38 special one.

But if a person already has a .380 pistol and no .38's it might make sense.

I think .32 mag (5-shot) would be the best caliber for a revolver a bit smaller than a jframe/LCR.

And yea, Taurus quality...

Yeah most rimfire 22LRs have crappy triggers, even more than a standard J-frame trigger.

That's also been my experience with .22 revolvers. Maybe a full size revolver like a .22 GP-100 is better?

Charter Arms used to make a small five shot .38 Spl revolver. I have one in stainless. I don't have a j-frame to compare it to, but it's quite a bit smaller than a Detective Special.

Make it an optional 4 shot .357/38.
