Looking to get something a little more easy to conceal than my G26. My current conceal options are G26, G19, 2.5" S&W 66, Springfield Champion.
I'm looking at Kahr MK9, Para Carry or PDA 9 (possibly .45), Springfield EMP 9mm.
The compact 1911's are nice (thinner), but grip length is .75" greater than my G26, and the grip length is the hardest part of concealing my Champion. The increase in overall length is almost nothing and doesn't make a difference. The Kahr is small in all ways, and has enough capacity for what I'm wanting, but I'm just not sure of the loooong trigger. I handled and dry fired quite a few today and the trigger just felt really wierd (I like the LDA trigger better). Also, it's really small, and I got rid of a PF-9 as it just hurt too much and I couldn't rely on it. Thye all stainless frame would help.
Just looking for input relative to factors I might have overlooked and maybe others experiences in carrying very small pistols 9mm and larger.
