Yesterday my dealer got in three of the new BG380s. I got the last one (they sold the first too as soon as they came in).
Compared to my Ruger LCP it is a helluva lot nicer. Better sights, better trigger, only slightly taller. It shot great in the 150 rounds I put through it. The laser only required a slight adjustment in elevation to be dead on.
A few times the last round in the mag would not fully eject, but other than that no issue in reliability. The laser worked fine the whole time too.
I put it back in my range bag, drove home, and met my brother as he was getting off work. I took it out to show it to him and the laser wouldn't come on.
I took the laser out to check the batteries, put it back together, nothing. Went to Walmart and got some new batteries and still nothing.
Any ideas?
I just got off the phone with S&W and they haven't heard of any issues with this, plus they are closed through next week. Called Insight and left a message but haven't heard back from them yet.
