I have been looking for a new backup and just purchased a new Baby Browning made by Precision Small Arms. This is almost too pretty to take out of the box. I had this one built with optional Abalone grips, I believe it is only one of three in this style to date. Ordered it with the optional machined aluminum case. Waiting on a second magazine which is on back order. They started out manufacturing these from machined investment casting but now are 100% billet.
Took a picture next to a Ruger LCP so you can compare the size. They make quite a few different variations but I chose mine with their stainless steel Nouveau mirror high polish chrome finish. The owner of PSA purchased the rights to make the Baby Browning and these are a labor of love for him, insisting on CNC'ing and hand fitting these guns to exacting standards. I had a long one on one talk with the man out at the Shot Show and was impressed with his passion for bringing this legendary model back into production using the latest technology.
Load it up with some Magsafe 25D +P defender ammo and you can get about 1,750 fps out the barrel, which improves it somewhat as a self defense back up gun. I am retiring my old Beretta 950BS back to the safe after twenty-five years of service.
