I won't demean the .380 (which, like all other cartridges has benefited from advancements in powders and projectiles), but for my purposes, I've never understood the rationale for carrying one when current 9X19 offerings are so handy. My small gun is a Kahr P9. If I need to pocket carry, my 642 will get the nod. The Kahr shoots reliably and accurately, has very nice, bold (Mepro) sights and is stoked with +p ammo.
