well if you are really skinny in the waist you might have to carry a subcompact unless you dont care about getting made
smallest to largest
P365
G26
G19K
S&W MP2.0 SubCompact
CZ P10S
the new Ruger compacts look smaller but i dont know nothing about those
i find the g26 much easier to use than the p365, like i don't even have to practice much to hit a paper plate at 10m from the draw. you can carry it almost any clothes too.
so unless you have really short fingers, a g26 is a great edc that will barely print, in any clothing
or, if you plan to carry mostly at night then you'd want something that can hang a light
they are cheap too you can get them for $450 otd if you are a veteran, firefighter, cop or emt or signup for the Glock club
only thing is you should upgrade the sights ~ $90 and buy a tenicor certurm or jmcustom kydex for it
its the best two finger grip gun. there are good reasons for the long assed G26.5 thread and the gen4 threads before that

btw these threads need a 'best posts' compiled...someone should make their kids do it as a chore
G26 2K test results, if it weren't for the ammo shortage caused by the BLM riots + carunka lockdown, for sure the fifth gen wouldve already made it to this list

I live in VA and bought these “just in case” as well. Just like when you buy snow tires it doesn’t snow here. It did work out for me because the AWB did not pass.
For whatever reason my p80 glocks and my only gen 3 runs the Magpul 10 rounders with no issue. My two gen 5 guns have some fail to feed issues with all my magpuls regardless of capacity.

2. OP where are you?
3. HCM dropped some EDC platinum right there!
I "might" consider stretching my budget and buy an optics ready model of said pistol such that at some point in the future you could more easily add a red dot sight.
The advice to buy a quality belt and mate it with a quality holster is spot on as well. My default belt rec these days is Mastermind Tactics or Wilderness. My default kydex holster rec would probably be JM, Dark Star, Philster, Tenicor or Keepers as my old go to is out of business.
There are others manufacturers who are good to go and many are regional in nature such that me not knowing of them may not be an indicative of anything.
