25 years in LE has caused me to rethink my position on the 380ACP. Personally, I feel the 380 is at its best in the KelTec or Ruger sized guns and should only be carried when it is impossible to carry something bigger, or as a 2nd or 3rd gun. It beats having nothing, but that's about it IMO.

BTW, if I carried one I would go with standard factory ammo from the larger companies and not mess with the "+P" stuff. Extra recoil, reduced reliability, and increased wear on the weapon are all I can see coming from the use of those.
