Slim seems like a neat carry pistol, but I like the stainless PPK/s better (except for the fact that it jams 5% of the time(arrgh..!). Switched to a Ruger SP101 .357 snubbie for carry. Now there's some heavy metal. Feels like a brick.
Sometimes I'm just conflicted. If we had "open carry" I'd carry a full size 1911 cocked and locked or a Beretta 92SF. Concealed, I pine for a reliable pocket sized steel .380 or 9mm.
Maybe I'll have to get a Lorcin .25 or a Raven.
I hear that if you turn in a Kroger $50 gift card to the Dallas PD, they'll give you a Lorcin or Raven in return!
