You could go with the king of small. NAA

The Iver Johnson TP22 is a scaled down copy of the Walther PPK. The slide is removed in exactly the same way as the Walther. Ironically, the Walther version of the TP22 is a piece of junk! The slide can easily cut the top of your hand when fired and for some ridiculous reason the feed angle of the rounds in the Walther pre dispose it to FTF off fully loaded mags. What a big bucks abortion. The TP's run high 2 to maybe 300. The nickel ones are hard to find since they didn't make many due to the fact they had trouble getting the nickel to stick to the cast parts. The Taurus is a rare old one that compared to a newer model 941 8 shot magnum, it shows as a lighter by 4 oz, nice shooter despite an extra inch of barrel. As far as a small carry 22, I much prefer a magnum unless you want to do a lot of shooting, the LR is more practical but with that said, an LR in that usage would get kicked up in size a bit to a Auto such as a Ruger, Buckmark or like the old High Standard lightweight I have pictured. Oh, Im only 5'8 with normal medium sized hands.

 

This sports an aluminum barrel I lined with a redman liner and Bentz chamber. This is a one hole-er shooter!
