Thanks, JayFramer! I've been meaning to ask about the EZs. It seems though that as soon as they came out with the .380, which is a fine cartridge IMO for self defense, they came out with the 9mm. (What was it; less than a year?) I'm still thinking about getting one for myself to keep handy around the house. I've heard nothing bad about them, but haven't really heard any honest reviews. Thanks! I'll keep the .380 in mind next time I'm window shopping.
