Hey, I help where I can.

If you can scrape together enough sheckles to buy a Kel-Tec P11, you can get a used Glock 26 for a little bit more. I like Kel-Tec (don't own one myself) but the chance of you getting a dud P11 (trigger is infamous bad, gun often requires a little WECSOG to be functional) that can't hit the broad side of a barn at 7 yards is not appealing. Your pocket gun needs to go bang every time and has to be able to consistently hit a pie plate 3 yards off hand. The G26 will be almost as small as some of the other budget guns mentioned and 100% reliable. It also takes Glock mags which means your reload can be a 17 round full size mag if you so choose (very popular option). Holsters and accessories for the baby Glock are numerous.

Honestly, I dislike pocket carry and don't do it often due to the size limitations. You can get a good Bladetech IWB holster for like $50 and never have to worry about printing, even with a bigger gun. They have "fully tuckable" models that disappear under dress clothes. Something to think about.
