Here’s A Compact Pistol That Packs a BIG PUNCH: The Heizer PKO45

Who says that a good little compact pistol for concealed carry has to be a .22 caliber, or even a .380 ? If you knew that your CCP gun was a larger caliber it might even give you a better sense of personal security. Well, here we have something that might make you feel more secure , the Heizer PKO45, a little package that packs a BIG PUNCH.

Some will complain, that since the PKO45 only holds 5 rounds with the standard magazine, it wouldn’t be well suited for a conceal-carry gun, but when your life is at risk, 2 or 3 rounds will certainly do the job. There is also a 7 round magazine available for this pistol.

About the PKO45 from their website heizerdefense.com :

The PKO45 or Pocket 45, is the slimmest semi-auto .45ACP on the market at just 0.8″ wide and approximately 25 ounces.  This pistol is made with 100% US Aerospace grade stainless steel. There are no plastic or mimed parts. It boasts a revolutionary fixed-barrel-under-the-guide-rod configuration, resulting in less recoil felt by the operator.

Throughout much of these experience’s there was a war going on, creating many struggles and hardships, gaining a unique set of values from these life-altering chapters that most of us could only imagine. During these times, he helped on projects like making lighters from shell castings to sell and trade for necessities, salvaging and modifying a damaged, abandoned half-track into a working tractor to plow their fields. Fearing for his life, he fled Hungary on foot making his his way to a port, then on a ship to America where he started a new life.
