I don't have any exerience with the Boberg, but I do have experience with a compact 9mm. I have a Diamondback DB9 compact that I dearly love.

The major difference that I see with the Boberg is that it can shoot +P rounds while my DB9 cannot. The Boberg also carries one more round.

But, my DB9 is also about 1/3 the price....

I figure it this way. As long as they work, I really don't care how they look. My DB9 has one function, go BANG every time I pull the trigger, hopefully keeping me and my loved ones alive should I ever need to use it...

Don't care what it looks like. This would be an excellent pocket pistol--if it had a manual safety.

I looked long and hard to find a pistol I liked that DIDN'T have a manual safety. I'm a southpaw with not the largest hands. So I find the usual safety placement on most handguns is a real bitch for me to operate, especially in a tense situation.

As long as it has a long trigger pull, that's enough with a dao pocket pistol...

.45 ACP +P gives you 5" (non +P)performance in a 3" barrel. Very good in my Glock 30.

I've had mine for over a month and absolutely love it. Fit, finish, and engineering is outstanding....have run some of the factory recommended ammo thru it, ran flawlessly. Works well for concealed carry and as a "truck gun".
