Ruger LCP II
The smallest of all. Six rounds, under a third of a kilogram, and two centimeters wide. Its .22 version is especially relevant for anyone with very limited hand strength — recoil is almost nonexistent and racking the slide is exceptionally easy.

- .22 version with almost zero recoil

What's less good

How to mount an optic on it
The Ruger LCP II has no factory optic cut, which is true of most pistols in Israel. There are two routes: milling the slide at a gunsmith, which costs more and is irreversible but sits the optic low; or an adapter that replaces the rear sight, which is cheap and reversible but sits it higher. These are the optics that mount without milling.
