I took the 38 bodyguard in on a trade, thought it might be a good carry piece. It shot to point of aim, was light weight and easy concealable. Problem was it would misfire every so often, sent it in to S&W and it returned with the same problem. Sent it back. This time they seemed to get it right and it fired every time fine. They replaced the cylinder, firing pin and spring. Just could not trust it for a carry piece, sold it to a fellow that said it would just be a range gun. I told him about the problems I had, he didn't care as it would not be carried. My 638 and XD sub work just fine.
