It’s been a while since I made a video, so here is a short clip of the new 380. It is a very shootable gun with a lot to like. Barely bigger (like a hair) than the old Bodyguard, it is much nicer to shoot. With ball ammo, I could shoot it all day without discomfort. Hollowpoints have a little more recoil but nothing unpleasant. The stack and a half mag really distributes the recoil well and adds nothing meaningful to the bulk of the gun. The mags hold either 10 rounds flush or 12 rounds extended, but I found the last round to be about impossible to load. Regardless, it is the most shootable little .380 I have ever shot. The sights and trigger are excellent for fast work. I expect S&W will sell a bunch of these. Just don’t pocket carry without a holster to protect the trigger.
