Sks,
Are you thinking of purchasing one of these little pistols? What Ruger 357 says about the 21 vs. 950 is correct. (double vs. single action)
the 950 "Jetfire" is smaller. I've had one in stainless steel for about two months. It's my "sitting around watching TV pistol". Very comfortable in my pocket. I have more powerful pistols (lots
), but the little Jetfire is what is usually in my pocket as I watch a race or ballgame on TV.
My Jetfire has been perfectly reliable, but I haven't fired it much. I bought some .25ACP MagSafes that I keep the mag loaded with. Nasty little surprise for a bad guy who looks in a window and thinks a middle aged man watching TV would be an easy mark.

CSG,
I was very glad to read your reply. Several people told me the Jetfire wouldn't be good for anything but making noise. I disagreed. Small pocket pistols have their place too.
(Like my "sitting around the house" Jetfire.) I didn't buy it to win a war, just to have an extra edge. A lot of times the Jetfire is in my pocket and a Glock 27 is on my hip.

WLM,
Until the advent of the internet forum, .25's were very popular vest and pocket guns. Millions have been made over the years and can kill a person quite dead as any victim of the .25 can attest.
With all of the even more potent little pocket pistols, the .25 seems to have fallen out of favor with many. Not a great pistol to shoot through layers of garments on a bad guy hiding behind a wall but deadly enough at the range one is likely to have to use it. Takes a bit of practice to shoot well.

I own two 21As and one 950 and they are great little guns. Prior to buying my Kel-Tec P-32, they were my favorite pocket pistol, the key word in that sentence is were as in past tense. The Kel-Tec is more powerful, flatter, much lighter and fires a more powerful round. The Kel-Tec can be carried in your shirt pocket like a pack of smokes and you won't even notice its there.
