Actually, a great option would be the BERSA Thunder in the CC version...for almost the same price you get a proven, super dependable back up. Why would you put your life at greater risk..just to save a few hundred bones. If you pull the trigger and 'nada", trust me, the couple extra hundred bucks will look like a steal. Not to mention all of these horror stories of parts just falling off the KT's when firing. I understand a lot of these problems have been worked out, but that says something about the engineering and QA of the brand. I strongly recommend to save the extra money and get a premium firearm that you know will shoot no matter what ammo is in the chamber. Not to mention, fit, finish and legendary accuracy from any of of the above brands. If you can save $250 then you can save twice that for a compact premium brand.
