Default The wait begins

Sent off my Bodyguard 38 yesterday at 5pm it was delivered today at 9am. Gun has issues failure of the cylinder to rotate has happened 4 times and I had one issue with the cylinder locking up it would not turn nor would it open without force. Not bad for a new gun less then a month old

sounds like a bad deal, let us know how S&W handles it....I would bet that they will make it right ASAP.

Keep us apprised.

Now that's funny...........
I thought the same thing about the KAHR, but apparently I was wrong, those guns are loved by their owners (most).

But the BODYGUARD 380............I WANT ONE BAD!

Isn't that all it needs to go up in value & become a promising S&W collectible?
