I like to carry my Colt Mustang in the summer. It shoots much more accurately than a Ruger LCP or S&W Bodyguard .380. I think that the LCP is the definitive carry gun for the pocket, though. They are no fun to shoot, but they are lighter than my all-steel Mustang (which is why they're no fun to shoot). A pocket gun like that is for carrying when you don't want to carry, but you do anyway. It's single advantage is that you are still armed.

People will tell you (usually the guy carrying a .40 S&W with two extra 12-round mags) that a .380 will "just make somebody mad" and "really won't do any damage". You should ask these folks to stand there and let you shoot them a few times with it. They won't.
