Best compact carry pistol for California residents seeking optic-ready performance.
This is a rare concealed-carry option that manages to feel like a full-sized pistol in the hand without the bulk. While the California-compliant capacity limits your round count, you gain an exceptionally crisp trigger and an optic-ready platform that makes shooting significantly more intuitive than most subcompacts.
