Unless it is a smaller physical size, there may be no advantage to ownership. Plus, have you tried to find .380 ammo lately!!!
Glock makes 2 models in 380ACP. Many collectors would like to own them, but they are prohibited from import. They don't meet the minimum number of points for import under the GCA of 1968.

One is the same size as the Glock Model 19. I think the other one is the same size as the Glock Model 26; but I'm not 100% positive.

Even if you could buy one, I see no point in owning a pistol that is the exact same size as a 9mm Glock, but uses the 380ACP round.
