I am a new member here and have just bought the S&W Bodyguard 380the other day. I too have experienced the problem with the laser button on the right side. I spent 10 minutes last night using the Q-tip fix and I have to say that it was very effective. I can now just press the button and it is on immediately. I have also carried it around for a few hours in a middle of the back Uncle Mikes holster and did not have any issues of the laser turning on.
Thanks for all the posts on this forum. It helped me make an informed decision to purchase this particular model. I look forward to reading on an ongoing basis and learning more and more as time goes on.

Thanks to all
