Here's one of my favorite US produced pocket pistols, the Remington Model 51 chambered for .380 acp.
They were available in .380 acp and .32 acp, with the latter being the scarcer production. It was based on a John D. Pederson design and Remington really got it right with the ergonomics. Very trim and thin, the grip angle is just about optimum. Remington actually made hundreds of wax impressions of hands to design the grip. One of their marketing slogans was "fits the palm like the hand of a friend".
