Default Bodyguard 380

Just put a Santiago trigger kit in my 380, it was easy enough, but wow, keeping all the parts in place to slid the action into the grip housing can be frustrating. Now a trip to the club to see how it functions. I'll post a range report this weekend.

Seems like a lot of $$$ for a $250 gun. Wife has one and is happy with the trigger. Hope she does not see this post!!!

I had one of these for 8 days. Every magazine full had at least 2 misfires! Took it back where I bought it for a full refund! Good luck!

Bulova, I have trouble applying rational logic to any and all gun purchases, it's all about the fun.

My Bodyguard trigger is completely smooth. My front sight is frozen in time when I pull the trigger. I couldn't ask for anything more from a DAO pocket pistol under $300 (other than for it to be a DA/SA).
