Have giant palms and short stubby fingers and it was hard to get a good grip on the LCP design wise. Please let us know how it does. sans speedo.

I have similar issues with my hand size and prefer a gun that has magazine extentions like most sub-compacts do. .380 recoil isn't going to rip the gun out of my hand, but those little guns already have the accuracy disadvantage given the shorter barrel, and my monkey-mitts need all the help they can get. (and yes, before anyone says it, I know that most gunfights occur at a distance where accuracy is of minimal concern for a trained shooter)
I like the speedo-gun idea though. Luckily (for me and the rest of the world) I have a son and carry a "Tactical Diaper Bag" everywhere. Gun goes in there. Took it to the range to practice once, and managed to grab a fresh mag with a baby wipe wrapped around it. Still worked. That is when you realize that you are no longer an Operator, and are now "Daddy"...
