The CZ 75 Compact 9mm Pistol, 10+1, from CZ-USA (brand part no. 01190) shrinks the CZ 75 for concealment without giving up the steel frame. The barrel is just under 4 inches, which cuts a little more than three-quarters of an inch from the length of the full-size pistol and lets it disappear under regular clothing. The manual safety gives you two carry options, hammer back with the safety on or manually decocked for a double-action first shot, and this version has a 10+1 magazine capacity.
