I got the BG380 in april 2012. I have about 250 rounds through it so far. Despite the trigger I like the gun and carried it every day. My instruction book does not mention Locktite. A month ago after changing the batteries.I lost the screw sometime during a string of about 25 rounds. Not sure when. I called S&W. They sent me a new screw, in early Oct.. I was in a remote area and could not locate Loctite Blue. After a 100mile trek, I came home with Permatex Blue. It was all that I could find. Threads are now plugged up.
I am back to carrying the Walther PPKS. Forgot how heavy it is. Waiting for shipping instructions. Begining to think that the laser makes this a hobby carry. I still really like the BG380. Don't like the Laser mount... Mel
