    We're a bit off-topic now, but what the heck...

    It depends on the sporran. I've got a Kimber Ultra CDP II (the sub-compact model) that has the Chip McCormick slim-line grips and Pearce finger grooves added. It looks like this, but with thinner grip panels. I think it would carry better in that new SWK sporran than the Walther they show it with - it's ½" shorter on the grip and ¼" shorter in length.




    Of course, for accessabilty in a more standard type of sporran, any gun is going to have to be fitted into the top of the "puzzle peices" and will show any time you retrieve your wallet or phone, thereby ruining the "concealed" aspect.

    ..and in a Freelander it'll just drop to the bottom of the bag and get buried!
