Your .380 might just piss someone off. [/quote Just because we Americans think bigger is better, it is not always so. Even .22 can kill, if it hits you right. One of the advantages of a .380 in populated areas, is less of a chance of deadly collateral damage. Even Highly trained Police officers, miss the target in the heat of the moment and hit bystanders. Larger calibers, like .357 mag, may penetrate walls and injure or kill, your family or neighbors, etc. Something to think about. |

It hardly ever get in my way thats why. glocks too bulky too keep all day esp with extended clips. Hell Ruger LCP actually it makes me forget my cellphone at times cuz it's so light. hollow points well placed are the equalizer. |

Wanting light compact with plenty of pop, leaning towards either a Bersa thunder .380 or Ruger Lcp .380. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29816487 We're both getting our concealed carry permits asap. Same here. We are planning on taking the class once she has a Saturday off. I've been thinking about getting a S&W Bodyguard. Its a .380, has the built in laser below the barrel, fits perfect in the pocket and can be got new for about $350. And for the person that said the 380 might only piss someone off... If my cousin, whom is a LE and teaches Concealed classes trust the 380 to carry, than I can too. |

Between those two, I'd take the Bersa Thunder .380. Its a very finely made weapon, the quality and reliability will not disappoint you. If you have a little more money, go for an original pattern Makarov. Bulgarians are still available for a reasonable price in the original 9x17 caliber. I've found the Makarovs to be slightly more accurate than the Bersa Thunder .380, but not by much. The Bersa Thunder .380 does have better sights however. Try it out at a gun range, you should be able to find one locally that will rent you a Bersa Thunder so you can feel it out and see if you like it. |

A good majority of would be robers will run at the sight of a gun and almost certainly will if you fire off a round. But, if you are dealing with someone on drugs then you need knock down power. A 380 will not work in certain situations unless you hit them between the eyes. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 26795689 United States 12/15/2012 07:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I carry a Smith&Wesson Bodyguard 380 with laser sight in a pocket holster that I have never had any issues with at all and it is very accurate at 30'. But just to safeguard myself in case it may ever happen to jam or misfire when I may really need it (hope not lol) I carry a ruger p95 in a paddle holster on my hip with extra mag and just to be safe I carry my Beretta 25 in a a good safariland holster in my boot. I try not to over do things. Just my 2 cents on the S&W Bodyguard though. Good Luck! Quoting: Momed24 This is you: |
33 User ID: 25104699 United States 12/16/2012 06:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I carry the Bersa Thunder .380 15+1 Nickel Finish. With the right holster I am happy with the weapon overall. The break in has been difficult though, as of now it only will run Remington Rounded Point FMJ Ammo without hiccups, thinking about sending it back under warranty. We forget sometimes that there are saints living among us. When we meet them, we are reminded, not just of the presence of pure divinity right here on earth, but also of our own potential, and of the responsibility we have to try to live up to it ~ for our own sakes and for the very future of this planet. |

Last Edited by Chrit on 12/16/2012 06:33 PM I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw. We must all realize a sink a chair and a pillow are all luxuries of home and a soldiers helmet takes the place of all three. |
