I never said it wasn't popular. I just said it's not a good first gun. The two are mutually exclusive.

Never a single malfunction in over 40 pistols? OK, if you say so. But just because you haven't had a malfunction doesn't mean shooter induced malfunctions are impossible. Like I said, it's not always just about holding it loosely. It could be that you just never hit the sweet spot. Maybe your grip is better than you think.

Trading it in was probably the right thing for you. I've seen many of the .380Auto guns have lots of malfunctions. People keep telling me how great they are, but I have yet to see it. I would like nothing better than to see a .380Auto that really works well.
My sister-in-law bought a Sig Sauer P238 and she likes it a lot. I have not fired or even handled it, but she says it works good. Maybe try that.
