Ok I'm thinking about getting a new pewpew to carry. I want small and lightweight and I know we have few enthusiasts here so give me some suggestions. The lighter the better I currently carry a 9mm Taurus Slim so what's out there that's lighter and smaller?

Yes please but as long as it would pack the same punch I would be open to other options.
You could go up a caliber and get a .45 ACP pistol

9mm is the perfect carry caliber really. The .40 is basically obsolete. 45s are much heavier and will hold less rounds of course.

None of the above. My wife and kids are going to the lake so I'll be watching movies! Not sure which ones yet. We've got our homeschool co-op end of semester Showcase this morning, then lunch and screen time. Gonna relax and rest the back today.
Enjoy the relaxation sir
