Pharm:
I've not yet acquired a handgun, despite my age, and have read a lot (25 hours+) about the P-64 and a few other .380 handguns: actual Maks, CZ-83, Bersa T.,
Sig 232, PPK.

A few friends 'carry' the P-64, but after three brief sessions with the gun, could not get used to the recoil. I sometimes shoot my Enfield #5 "Jungles" with No pad when wearing t-shirts, but that 64 is hard for me to get used to. The Bersa T. .380 is so much more pleasant.

The goal is Not to ever carry, but just have fun.
