Features
The subcompact frame disappears under most clothing without issue. At 11.5 oz it's easy to carry all day. The double-action mechanism means no external safety to manage. The trigger pull is the safety. Sights are 1-Dot front and 2-Dot rear, enough for close-range defensive use. The Lavender finish is distinctive; it does differentiate the Pico from the typical black or stainless options.
Usage
The Pico is purpose-built for concealment. Six rounds of .380 ACP isn't a lot of capacity, and .380 is a lighter caliber than 9mm, so this isn't a pistol you'd choose for the range over a full-size gun. What it does well is disappear on the person. It's well-suited as a backup gun or as a primary carry option for someone who wants the smallest, lightest package possible.
